Rolex

This one’s on my list..

Probably the best proportioned current model steel sports Rolex out there.. at least for me. Great catch!

I really should have gotten one way back when they upgraded it in 2016. The Explorer is probably my favorite modern Rolex reference.

My favorite Rolex

Just perfect.

I agree IWC :-)) [nt]

Great piece [nt]

Thanks Logan! [nt]

If I knew then what I know now I would still have mine. Nice watch. [nt]

It's not too late to get a replacement Thomas :-)) [nt]

Oh don't tempt me any more than I am already tempted :)

I think I want another "pilot's watch" before I add another Rolex.

We are all enablers here :-)) [nt]

100% agree Echi

By: reintitan : May 1st, 2019-14:45

Especially about the proportions. Most Rolex models lost theirs when they got super-cased!

I am a fan of all Explorers... This one is no exception! [nt]

By: amanico : May 1st, 2019-00:07

We are both fans my friend! [nt]

By: reintitan : May 1st, 2019-14:45

So are you going down the line? 14270, 1016, 6610, 6350? [nt]

By: amanico : May 1st, 2019-14:49

People say that there aren't too many Explorer references

By: reintitan : May 1st, 2019-15:25

What they forget is that there are damn near infinite variations in all those references! I now have the 214270 "Mark II", 114270, and a "frog-foot" matte dial 1016. That only leaves...let's see... 6098 6298 non-3-6-9 white dial 6298 non-3-6-9 black dial ...

That's it. But to sum a bit, I would be happy with a 1016 and with a 6350 Honeycomb dial. OK, a 6298 white dial, too. [nt]

My first Rolex was Exp 1 with short hands...

By: mahesh : May 1st, 2019-00:31

It is gone but the new version interests me a lot. Very nice and understated Rolex... An old pic, Best, Mahesh., ...

Mahesh, I'm warming up to the "Mark I"

By: reintitan : May 1st, 2019-14:46

It will definitely be collectible in the future because it had such a short run.
