new incomings blue skydweller, explorer 2
things seem to be happening at ADs again! got to say this new explorer 2 is amazing. scratched it already in week one. it’s so much better than the previous model with the gloss dial and bigger bracelet. would heartily recommend.

2 absolute crackers, Jon. Nicely done!
Agree that the EXP II is better than the previous. The changes on their own are small, but they all add up. I especially like the wider bracelet. |

Wow! That's some score. Congratulations.
I'm not in the thrash it and smash it camp of watch wearing, but a scratch on an Explorer II which isn't disfiguring seems somehow appropriate for the model. |

I like the new explorer in all ways EXCEPT the wider bracelet… makes it feel chunkier to me.

Congratulations, Jonnewbank!
Great taste, may I add? These are the two that brought me to the Rolex boutique. The Explorer II 226570 is truly a great reference, and agree that better than the previous. The SkyD has the Rolex movement I find the most interesting (and offers it at a comparatively very competitive price point!) |

Congratulations! Fantastic duo. I also love the black dial EXP2. Always had a thing for black dials. Definitely an improvement over the previous version of the EXP2.
