Achieved a goal of mine today. Purchased a “birth-year” 1990/ Rolex Explorer II with the polar dial. Been looking for this since 2015 and the money and watch/etc happened to work out today!

Very nice, congrats! That’s a lifetime watch and can wear it anywhere with anything.

Can confirm you’ve been talking about this since 2015.

Beautiful watch! Looks like it’s in great shape. A birthyear Rolex is one of my goals as well.

Thats a  lovely looking Sinn, not enough people wear those. But great find on the Roller congrats.

Congrats.  Love the Sinn too.  Unfortunately the search for a birth year Rolex for me has a bit more of a challenge.  Not too many deals on a 1967 model...

The Sinn is such a great tool watch. Plus it takes desk damage well too.

Im jealous that’s a fantastic looking piece. I hadn’t thought of getting a birth year watch before but love the idea!

Love the collection!  White dial explorer is about perfect for me, though I like the orange hand / strap combo as well.

That’s a gorgeous collection!  I’ve always wanted a birth year Daytona but as they’re currently hovering around $40-80,000 I don’t think it’ll be happening any time soon unfortunately.
