Many years ago, when I was much younger and still in the US Navy, I read a book series entitled "Dan Track". He was an American version of 007. Not as refined and much rougher around the edges than James Bond. But, he was very cool and wore a Rolex. That's when my desire to own a Rolex of my own began. The problem was, a military salary is not conducive to a Rolex lifestyle. Thankfully age and time has been good to me in many ways and I now can introduce my first Rolex. An Exployer II and I love everything about it.

Well done. Nice choice of watch. I was lucky, they gave us rolexes when I was in the military "1971-1979 " " but unfortunatly they took em back when we left. Bought my first rolex just before Xmas so know how it feels ie: ( great)
Enjoy

Congrats! I hope your new Rolexes bring you the joy of ownership you've been waiting for.

A wonderful companion to have with you (and very useful with the 24hr hand when traveling). Excellent choice!

Dan Track? Interesting. Never heard of him. Who is the author?

A BIG CONGRATS from me as well...:thumbup1::thumbup1:

The author is Patrick Andrews. There were only 3 books in the series all from 1986. If you go to ebay and search for "GHOST DANCERS DRUG RUNNER COCAINE RUN DAN TRACK LOT 3 PAPERBACKS" you'll find a seller who has all three. If you're familiar with the "Mac Bolan" series, written by Don Pendleton, it's similar.
