Rolex

Great example of a beloved Rolex reference Dylan!...

 

... The Explorer 1 is a classic, for which I have a special fondness. Tough, reliable, sporty, cool looking is a very niice watch to have on the wrist. I like to wear mine on its original Oyster bracelet. Here is my picture! Enjoy yours in good health! Cordial regards, Abel.

That Ian! You buying an explorer played a part in my poisoning process so you have a share in the blame!

Noticed your preference for natos with the 6610. And I can see why. Lovely specimen too, and the white albino second hand is the cherry on the cake.

Very privileged to try it today, it wears beautifully indeed. For me, I\'d plump for the bracelet, call me a traditionalist but I like my Rolexes on bracelets

Thanks bro!

Indeed I will probably switch it back tonight, haha!

Congrats Bro !

Here just some greetings from house to house: Explorer 1016, low-key treasure for me Have to say, it looks great on these beige Natos, like Nico\'s, but somehow I mostly prefer its rivited bracelet.. Best & HAGWE, hs ...  

Thanks

Beautiful watch

I have to admit, I was inspired by this site thanks to Baron's Red Depth post. When I saw the Gold Depth come up, it looked really special. I've only see two others with the same dial. Thanks again.
