My boyfriend is 5ft 10in and weighs approximately 170lbs. He has an average wrist size and is very active. I was wondering if I should get him a Datejust, Explorer, or Submariner? Please let me know what you guys think.

Also, where can I get a Rolex watch at a good price but safe? There is Bob’s Watches in Newport beach which is relatively close to me. Does anyone have experiences with them?

Brian (Briboxer) here on TRF is in OC/Costa Mesa. He would be a good person to contact as you are close by. Good Luck! PS- I vote Submariner with Date.
