Any ladies wear the 36mm Explorer 1?

I've been thinking lately I'd like a sportier model and the 36mm Explorer is catching my eye. Any ladies here wear it and love it? Have pictures to share?

Thank y'all!

Seeing that the 36mm aligns with current trends, working nicely with both casual and formal ouffits, with more size comes greater readability of the dials as weĺl
Definitely a good buy for all y'aĺl ladies...

Thanks for the opinion I am considering putting it on my list, hoping some other ladies here will show pics!

I say go for it. The bracelet taper make the watch feel a bit smaller than my other 36mm watches (OP's).

I have read that in other places, that the bracelet taper makes a difference. I'd looked at several other sport models but this one may be the one I go for

I had the TT version for a while but sold it. I have no pics. Nice watch, easy to read. Good watch for the pool and beach. I agree with Michelle that it wears small.

The two tone is pretty I have just never been able to get into two tone watches myself. Bought a two tone Raymond Weil back in 2007 or so and didn't really love it over time so I gave it to my Mom.

I think it looks great on a woman's wrist. The pics here show just that.

My wife wants mine but I like it too much LOL
I may get her one but honestly I don't know as she really only wears her apple watch these days. She's a Dr so she can discreetly preview a message to know if its important or not when with patients

I tried an apple watch for awhile and just never got into it. I also use a hospital messaging system so I am sure it's probably helpful for that.

It will be my next one, as well. My AD’s MGR. has promised that the next one to come into the store is for me. Should be soon. Here is a pic of the one I tried on:

I wanted to get one for my wife, but she just likes DJ36 and OP36 better. Felt the Exp is a bit too 'masculine'

I love those two, also, and own both. The Explorer will be a nice 3rd 36 mm piece in my modest Rolex collection.
