Explorer II Polar Arrival
Have debated this one for a few years but finally decided to bring one home. Plan to make this my warmer weather watch once I move past my initial acquisition stage of wearing.

Congrats! It’s an awesome watch. I’ve had mine for about 5 years now and always wear it during the summer months, kayaking, biking, hiking, boating etc. it’s a perfect fit.

Enjoy
