Congrats, Karis! Really sharp, both on the wrist and next to the Sub & DJ. So similar, yet such a great contrast, highly complementary! What a nice choice!

Congratulations Karis!!!
I'm so glad you went with the Explorer II, it just adds so much versatility and it compliments your collection a lot. You truly have a watch for every occasion. I agree with those who said that the Explorer II has never looked better on anyone's wrist like yours. I thought the Expy looked great on my wrist but after seeing your wrist shot, my wrist shot does not even come close to comparing. Its looks so much better on your wrist by like a million times. Just beautiful! Your Expy also has the new caliber 3186 on it which uses the blue parachrom hairspring. Can you give us an accuracy report on how your watch performs over the next couple days, to see if it runs pretty much still spot on? Wear your new watch in the very best of health for man many years to come! Cheers, Jerome
