Today I am sticking with the Sub C. That makes 14 days and counting without the slightest impulse to change. My other watches are starting to get mighty lonely...

Earlier today I had this one on:



But now I am wearing this, inspired by the fact that Tenzing Norgay's son Jamling Norgay has one too (and he has been to the top too). I've learnt that Rolex US gave him a black ExII in 1988 engraved "Everest 1988" on the back:



Mine is paid for by myself, and has yet to be engraved on the back.

Best,

A

Well, then I'll have to go with the "Peter Hillary Explorer"...

Good one! Like you I have both, and perhaps we shall try to be faster than the Italian collectors (who named the McQueen Explorer), and start to call those two the "Jamling Tenzing Explorer" and the "Peter Hillary Explorer"

Here is my white (but I am not wearing it today, it was on my wrist a week ago going downhill on skis, but not from 8848 meters... ):



Best,

A

Edit: Re-reading the blog by Jake I see that he already named the white ExII "the Peter Hillary Explorer", so if no one else have done it yet, I name the black: "the Jamling Norgay Explorer".

I'm rockin' my newly acquired GMTIIc. It was a spontaneous purchase, and while I was not wild about the green on it at first, I must admit it is really growing on me!
