Rolex makes a note that this orange-hand Explorer is announced on the 40th anniversary of the Ref 1655 Explorer II.
This watch is yet to reach HK, as many friends have asked about this watch, in fact from what I know fro the AD, those shop managers and or AD senior Manager would like to Hold and Keep this watch for himself, his relatives and his VIP Customers, before they are displayed for sales I the shops.
I am a Sham Shui Po Snob*… I can hardly get one too, so please do not ask me to get one for you, though I have no hesitation to offer my help for holding one for you if I could. If you can get one for me with a reasonable price.,.. I will like to buy from you!
Note that the Black One should be the winner! Price? No yet released.,… Keep an eye with your dealer and this is Hottest items from Rolex. WATCH OUT!

*Note
I have no intension to have a bad comment on Sham Shui Po which is Hong Kong poorest district, but I do like the people there, they are the grass root people in HK. They smile more than you can expect to see in Central or TST…
