Explorer...let's see!

Hi All,

Calling on all Explorer owners...post some good pics - would be great to see some vintage models too!

Had mine 8 months now and im loving it - hoping for a Rhodium DJ41 over the next few months...we will see.

Heres a pic of mine currently, working from home.

One of the best watches in terms of comfort and fit, like a fine silk melting with the rest. Looks amazing too, and can fit into any lifestyle and almost any circumstance/attire.

Here’s mine... you can only just see the watch but this was on my wedding day. The date and our names inscribed on the case back.

Best day of my life.

Suit was by Gieves and Hawkes.

Tritium dialed 14270 still sees plenty of exploring. That is sunscreen on the crystal, and my kids on the bow.
