Explorer II to Explorer I
When I was first looking to buy a Rolex my favourite, by far, was the Explorer I (214270). Easily the most comfortable watch & sits WAAY under the radar & easily fits under all clothes & gloves.
My only problem with that watch is really a problem with me. I'm at that age where it's getting harder to focus my eyes up close; it was nearly impossible for me to read the dial on the 214270. So I went with my second choice: the Explorer II (216570). Don't get me wrong! The Explorer II is a wonderful & beautiful watch, but I always feel a little self-conscious wearing it. Almost two years ago my wife bought the Explorer II for me (as a reward for losing a substantial amount of weight), but it looks as though my marriage is heading into the crapper. So it looks as though the sentimental value of the watch is about to be zero. And the Explorer I suits my personality & style more. Does anyone know if it's possible to swap the hour & minute hands from a 216570 to a 214279? |
