So, no, there wasn’t any doubt about my number one, and to be honest, picking number two wasn’t too difficult either. I got the perfect replica Rolex Explorer ref. 114270 a little over a year ago, and I still thoroughly enjoy it every time I wear it, and I wear it a lot. I’ve always found the Explorer attractive, but until that point, I had never bought one. When the time came to get my first 1:1 fake Rolex, I went with a ’74 Datejust instead, which I quickly sold. Then I thought I could scratch the itch with a Tudor Black Bay 36, and I even tried the Black Bay 58. But none of those three copy watches come anywhere close to what I feel when I put on the Explorer.

When I finally decided to get an aaa quality replica Rolex Explorer, I debated whether to get the current or the older 36mm aaa quality replica Rolex. Because of the less dramatic taper on the bracelet and better-proportioned dial (in my eyes), I went with the older reference from the 2000s, and I’m still elated that I did. For some reason, the newer Swiss movement fake Rolex ref. 124270, the one that Morgan chose as his GADA watch, just doesn’t do it for me. It’s too perfect. The older 114270 still has some quirks, such as non-lumed numerals and a stamped clasp, and I love those quirks.
