Some Explorer banknotes shots.
Here is what I found from a recent series of " banknotes shots " I took.
Two watches which are dear to my heart. Not the most popular, but certainly not the less appealing!
6610 and 1655 side by side, and taken separately.
Let's see that...
Ready for the shot that kills?
Here you are:
These Explorers are just unbelievable. There is a life outside the Subs, Daytos and GMTs... There are the Explorers, also!
Best,
Nicolas

Once a year, even if it has been 2 years I didn't go there... I miss the Palmeraies... Best, my friend. Nicolas
Ouch! Touche mon amí! Fantastic shots my dear friend!...
... well, you know, you "converted" me to the Freccione, which has been for a record of four weeks on my wrist, and about the little Explorer... well, ... I need a "revancha" after my honeycomb fracass! Two great timepieces... so classic... so charming! A...
Well, one you already get, the other you will have.
It is just a question of patience... These Explos are pure fascination. Un abrazo, Pampeano! Nicolas
Thank you mi amigo Nicolas! Yes, you are right...

There might be life outside of the Subs, Daytos and GMTs but I afraid that might be no life left for the rolex collector. Especially those who read this forum BTW the bird is arriving soon Regards Tyler
Well, I think there is a life for Rolex Collectors.
I am not sure the purpose is to buy all... But to buy what you like, the, which is complementary or important. It may lead you very far, indeed, hence the necessity to find your own limits. Best, Nicolas
Amazing pics. & watches Nico...
I will have to stop looking at your posts for fear of endangering my health! The last pic. is really the money shot - both watches are at their best! cheers fernando
There are some watches which are worth having them...
These 2 are in this category, IMO. The 6610 is a classic, while the 1655 is so special! Best, my friend. Nicolas.
Correct...
....so much attention goes to the glamour models...the Subs and Daytos. I think of it like a football team..... The Daytona is the equivalent of Thierry Henry..... The Submariner is a little bit like the Zidane mode The Explorer is a Dessailly or Vieira I...
Aaah, the 6610 will always have a sentimental value, indeed.
Much more than a nice watch... A Friendship watch. I like to think that your unbelievable Red 6610 and mine are sisters, more than in one way. Honesty, the Explorer Family ended with the 16 570... The only question I didn't answer, yet, is to know which w...
