I am done for a while.
After months and months of saving and selling off a couple of watches that I thought I would have forever, I finally pulled the trigger on an Exp II. I was going to get a 14060M and sell my BB58, but I enjoy the 58 and its in a lot of family photos, I thought one of my kids might want it some day. The exp II has always been on radar and one popped up for sale at a pre-hype price, it just seemed like the right move. This will likely be a keeper and will probably lead to the sale of some of my other watches.

Enjoy, it’s a beautiful watch.
I’ve had the opportunity to try the most-recent 226570 and the 16570 a couple of weeks apart and, despite the initial excitement, I’ve realised it’s just not the watch for me.
Congratulations for the perseverance to save for what you really wanted, and a great reason to keep the BB58 🍻
Congrats! I’m looking forward to the day that I can pick up a 16570.
Congratulations for persever ing, enjoying the process and eventually getting this beautiful watch!! Meritocracy and efforts pay off!!
Did you receive it already? I look forward to seeing it in the WURW 😊🙏🏻

It has some scratches and marks but thats the way I like them. haha.
I've got a 226570 and one of my favorite watches. I just goes so well in any occasion. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Nicely done. Congratulations.
Congrats on your new watch, enjoy wearing it
See you in a week or two 😂
Just kidding, it’s a beautiful watch and one of my favorite Rolex models. Enjoy it and get a couple scratches on it!
Nice!!! If I didnt already have a great white, I would have probably gone polar.
That would make for a great 2-watch collection right there, IMHO - BB58 and an Explorer II
Very nice, congrats on the new acquisition
Pure class!
I may not ever be able to own one, but I know how much of an achievement getting one can be.
Congratulations!
I owned the 14060M. The last of the great subs. I think you made the right choice.
Congratulations!! Sounds well thought out. Enjoy!
I am on the grey nato slack, their sales forum is great. Also insta and wus.
Congrats. I think this is the natural evolution that many of us go through. We consolidate down once we figure out what we really want.
I am really consider explorer 2 but not sure how this will compliment my explorer 1
