I am liking no date Rolex watches more and more. I so regret selling my Milgauss GV.

One of the watches that gets a ton of wrist time is another Rolex icon...the Explorer 1. No date, just wind and go!

Congrats, I've been following your journey. It's really too bad you had to still bundle in the end though. The only justification is you ended up getting your girl a watch instead of putting that money into a Grey's hands.

Excellent pick up, the quintessential piece.

Great blog too by the way.

Picture with the cigar and scotch next hopefully?

Thanks for following along! I noticed that it's probably possible to get an air-king, Milgauss, or Explorer 1 from the AD with no purchase history. Anything beyond that and you really need to spend a little money unless you get very lucky, or are willing to wait very long.

I did need to buy something in the end but it was a watch my GF really wanted and we were going to buy it anyways.
