Cold, but cool. Understated, too. Not the Rolex we most often discuss, but not the less appealing, in my opinion. The oldest of us will remember that in the late 90ies, it was almost impossible to find one. This one will be on my wrist today. Best, Nicola...  

Mom Ami, funny you posted this because I was thinking of this ...

very cool and understated, yes. A beauty, also yes!

You made me remember mine, rather recenntly departed, for a bigger project.. Some few regrets for this Explo II, but looking forward helps..

Actually she\'s been a cool combo of cool & low-key, no-nonsense unobtrusiveness, plain pbut with the GMT function. and still some quiet charm. Well, we all have to condense from time to time, so she had to go, to make room for some stuff else.. - And thi...  

and I miss wearing mine too...

I've got one incoming

Took the plunge and got my first 'vintage'. Well, not quite vintage yet. It's a NOS from 2011. Thinking about putting it on a white Rubber B strap and take it into the summer sun

Will do!

As soon as it arrives. I might took a bit of a risk going for the slightly modern version but that is because, although not being a lawyer, I don't like holes in my case ;-)

well....no watch...

the Trusted Chrono24 Check Out is not as fail proof as they promise........... The dealer seems to has double sold the watch :-/ I am not pleased at the moment (read: a lot of swearing). To be continued...

Sorry to hear the trouble with ChronoXX

I am sure it will be resolved but I hope in your favor as far as who gets the watch. Bill

So much for the 'trusted'

 
 By: Arie - Mr Orange : June 9th, 2015-09:29
Yes I will get my money back. But I don't want money, I want that watch. So now I'm a bit lost about that 'trusted' business model.... There are worse things in life, but this still sucks.

so the 'hunt' continues...

Today I picked up my mothers Juvenia which I brought to a specialized vintage watch dealer in Amsterdam. The Juvenia did not run correctly anymore, the glass was broken, the crown dodgy, the strap looked like garbage and frankly; I wonder if she ever brou...  

Yes I'm afraid so.... [nt]
