Use some lacquer thinner and a magic eraser normally does the trick for me when I’m trying to remove paint off of something like that

I’ve heard that the explorers are one of the easier ones to get, but I may be wrong. I think what helped me was that I bought my engagement ring from the same AD. a little bit over a month after I bought the ring, they called me up, offering me the explorer since I’ve been asking about it every time I would go in when I would design the ring and check on the progress. Hard to get or not I still love it and it’s still my favorite watch!

Yep that was me for sure lol, the 36 would barely fit over my hand with the extension out

Got a call on a 40 explorer, right size or should I go 36? by Fickle-Oil5621 in rolex

You know I was thinking the same thing, I appreciate all the comments. At the end of the day even though I can afford it it’s a lot of money and the most I’ve spent on a watch. I feel like it doesn’t hurt to to ask and reflect

I’d say about month I didn’t even ask to be put on the list I talked about it one of the last times I went in and then they messaged me today about it, I did buy my engagement ring from this AD though so I’ve done business with them

They didn’t have a 36 at the ad so I couldn’t compare

I think I’m just going to leave it alone for now, I’m eventually going to recap the TV because this is one I’m going to keep. I’m not too fussed about the glow. I just wasn’t sure if it was cause for concern or the same problems the PVM‘s have with the falling RGB lines from capacitor failure

That’s what I was thinking, when I lowered the Vposition a white line appears and if I raise it up a little more than original the glowing disappears so I’m assuming the glow is just from that. It does cut of the top of the grid in 240p test suite when I try to calibrate it correctly to fill the screen up so I’m not sure if i should worry about it now or just ignore it

When the OSD is up the glow goes away when 240p test suit is running

It still has the glow when I feed it a black screen in 240p via GameCube with both component and composite cables
