Icon10 New proud Rolex Owners
I had waken up at 6AM yesterday waiting for FedEx to deliver my explorer ii black dial 16570 and another 115200 oyster date black dial for my gf. That was a longest day of my life. The truck came at 4PM. We were speechless while opening up the packages. They are both beautifully stunning. Those two make a nice rolex couple.
I was saving for my Sub-C but I changed my mind and bought 2 instead. It’s great to be a Rolex owner but even greater to share the joy to the one you love.
Again, thank Jizeal (Neil), George Ab (George) and TRF.
I’ll post some pics soon.

Awesome, I think you did much better than buying just a Sub C. I may be a little partial though because the 16570 is my FAVORITE watch!! Congrats!!!

The oyster date is such an under rated watch, it has such clean lines, something between a datejust and an explorer.
