The Watch Thread - Part 4

[yattokame]

As u can see, some other diff other than hands like the mini lume markers and font placement on dial. The bracelet is def the major improvement but apart from that, prefer the older dial and size

my SA actually recommended the Explorer I over the sub to me ........ now that I see it on you guys' wrists, it looks really nice.

My cousin was telling me he'd like to get a nice pen for his 21st bday but I suggested a watch. He's quite close to me......maybe I can get him one? But he's got quite a small wrist that my nautilus looked oversized on him.

Shall go and look at the explorer I. thanks much for the pics, guys.

Haha actually still considering lah......he's been a good boy all these years and have always worked hard and done well in his studies.

I can visualize it looks awesome on strap as well.

Honestly i've never given much thought to the explorer I before.....always brushing it aside and going for the II or sub. The photos here really made me sit up and have a closer look. Now my wife also said its very classy for a sports watch, esp on leather.

Two separate SAs from two different ADs......

Honestly okay lah. That day I saw a PRC auntie buy 8 rolex or more. The number of rolex boxes on the table is.....crazy. Within 2hrs.

Many said it is an understated model in the R family.
It was overlooked for the more crowd appealing sub, gmt or even the exp 2

I too find it simple yet class of elegance. Cant wait to try it...

Well, if it's within your means sure but it's a big extravagant for a 21st yr old kid to receive a rollie for a 21st. If he can handle the talk among his peers I guess it's fine. Anyway, it's not like he didn't deserve it. I guess a much more basic watch will be more apt. Unless pooling among relatives, a $2k watch is also very good enough for the guy already.

Errrr at age 21 i bought my first car with my own money. It was a babe magnet but I was all focused on making money and studying then.

Worked and saved a lot. And with the car (6yr old swift) I could take on more tuition assignments so it was a revenue generator for me

Since you seem to have achieved everything, what else is on your bucket list or your to-do-list?

Everything? Please, still long way to go.

Just hope to retire by 40 with decent passive income, and do more charity and volunteer work, spend more time with my family.
