Wow, never looked twice at the Explorer, but it looks great on your wrist.

Yes. Two great watches but with the Explorer's revisions its now my favourite 'do anything go anywhere watch'. Can be dressed up or down to suit any occasion. Enjoy.

Beautiful! I wanted the Exp1 too but couldn't pull it off on my 7.25-7.5" wrist. Had to go Sub. It certainly works for you, congrats!

- how is overall feeling and accuracy

thanks

I missed the date for the first day or two, but I get used to it. My SubC is on my right wrist so I have the date handy if I really need it ;) But seriously, I much prefer the symmetric numerals versus having a date on this watch.

On my wrist the watch feels perfect. Currently at +0.5s per day.
