happy guy.gifWell I sold some pieces I dont wear & a little coin outa my pocket & viola.

                                  Rolex ExplorerII (random serial#)

It's got the new  completely in house 3186 movement incorporating the Parachrome Blue hairspring. As a minor modification to the tried and tested 3185, Also the rehaut is engraved, the bracelet is luxury @ it's finest, those of you that own an Omega can appreiciate what I'm saying. The slightly raised, flat sapphire crystal is perfect for this watch. I am generally not a fan of Cyclops magnifiers on a crystal but this just flows w/ the piece. It's a little small @ 39mm but it wears bigger IMO, It's got a stealthy low profile.  Bezel is fixed which I generally dont like, but again it flows w/ the style of ths timepiece.

Pros so far are 3186 mvmt,Amazing comfort,Stealth factor

Cons, which I had to search for, Poor lume(which makes me sad),No AR coating, bracelet adjust is just your typical adjustments

I did my research b4 purchasing this 1-To say I'm extremely happy is an understatement- I'm exctaticsponge bob.gif

















Wanted to thank you guys since I've joined this forum, you have opened my eyes to what a TIMEPIECE is, w/ all the different LWIG & The  DAILY wrist shows.

THANKS DUDESyou rock.gif
