AD just offered a watch and provided teaser info on new models

Was just offered the Explorer I 214270. Very likely to pull the trigger tomorrow when I go in.

He also mentioned the Rolex rep just told them Rolex will be previewing the new September 1 models on Rolex’s website on August 25th.

We’ll see if that’s true but thought it was worth passing on to the group.

Any Explorer I owners regret it?

Not any Rolex watches that I want but....

An updated Explorer 1 or a white dial Explorer 1...

I will beat down my AD's door.

The current explorer is such a great watch. Curious to see what they do, but i think it’s highly under rated.

Thanks for the info. It will be nice to see a teaser put out and all of us trying to figure out what it is as we did in previous years.

Probably just the 3235 upgrade, but who knows? EX1 is classic 'as is'. Sometimes things do not need cosmetic improvements.

I am afraid any new release this year will be enough to excite people

No point in trying to correct people.

Each time I’ve inquired about the Explorer they’ve asked me which one, as the OP said.
