Incoming - Explorer 36

I'm really enjoying it, and having a big collection of 19mm straps I couldn't help but try it on a few in addition to the bracelet, which is excellent. I find that 19mm straps with curved spring bars clear the tight fit on the case with no problem, but the others will probably get torn up over time. Only took about 6 weeks to get it with no prior purchase history, at the South Coast Plaza Boutique. Glad things seem to be getting more back to normal in terms of supply.

Congratulation on the Explorer. I have one as well and it gets a lot of wrist time

Great watch, I bought a 40mm version recently. Loving the strap choices. I’ve never had the nerve to swap the bracelet for a strap, I’d always be thinking I’d not fitted the spring bars correctly, and I’d loose the thing.

I’m surprised by how much I’m still enjoying mine.



Your tan colored strap looks fantastic…… but mine will be staying on bracelet
