Welcome to TRF, Willie!

Please post a pic of the Expl. II.

Here is MY suggestion how to post pics here:

1) Go to www.photobucket.com and create an account (it's FREE!)
2) Upload the pic to photobucket from your PC
3) When it's uploaded, copy the IMG code (BOTTOM bar under the photo in photobucket - there are four bars, but you'd wanna use the LAST bar - see my arrow on the Print Screen underneath). You copy the IMG code by simply clicking on the bar:



4) You then note that photobucket tells you "copied".
5) Then go to rolexforums and start your post.
6) In your post, press the "Add picture" button and a prompt pops up with http://. Delete that http:// and press CTRL + V (now that address of the photo - the "IMG tag" - is inserted in the prompt you got.
7) Then DELETE the last and first [IMG] to get rid of "IMG" standing before and after your photo when you post it. (not important, but just looks better).

Or you can skip # 6 & 7 and just rightclick in your post and choose "paste"...........BINGO your photo will be there as soon as you press Submit reply.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT DELETE THE PICTURE FROM PHOTOBUCKET (OR ANY SERVER YOU USE) SINCE DELETING IT THERE WOULD ALSO DELETE IT HERE ON TRF! (RED CROSS INSTEAD OF PIC).

That's it!

No flies on you, Willie. Wasn't it just a couple of days ago that you were trying to decide which model, and what AD to go to? Man, that's fast. Good for you.

Like I wrote in Willie's original thread, this guy must have set a record of some kind. I recommended an AD within five miles of his house who would make him a deal and he not only bought the watch but posted that he had bought it within two hours of me telling him about the AD!!!

Willie, did you get my PM about setting and winding the watch. It must have been disconcerting to see that the watch had stopped this morning. Welcome to the world of fine time pieces where mechanical watches are works of art.
