...it comes to Rolex, there are many in the catalogue that i drool for, what about the Explorer II while it is still around, your range is wide from the Air Kings to the many acclaimed Sports range / professional watches. Its a waste if u buy one new and change parts. Agreed. Sell it, lose a bit but you will gain more. Read all the Rolex articles posted here, history, events, series, range, and you will come to understand that when u see Rolex, you buy Rolex. You get what you see. Cheers.
