Incoming! Is it better than my SubC?
I like to get straight to the point :)
This showed up today and I just finished resizing it:  214270 - 2016 model I told myself I'd get it, just didn't think I'd get it so soon! I got it pre-loved (still can't believe someone would resell it so quickly!) and loving every minute (HA!). Here's my SubC Date:  I thought I would like the Explorer I more than the SubC, but once I got the SubC back on the wrist I knew instantly they were both keepers! Yes, I have puny wrists. I love both watches, and they make a fantastic duo. I am almost thinking about wearing one on the left and the other on the right  I really went WAY over my watch budget this year..no more Rolexes for me for a while. But then again, that's what I said a few months ago when I bought my SubC.. |

The explorer 1 really is rolex' all rounder
I don't have one, as to me - it is not a priority piece But I truly believe - if 007 was going to be remade, he'd be wearing one of these |

The Explorer lends itself very well for a 2-watch collection like yours, e.g. consisting of the Explorer showing some dress watch-like restraint, and a sporty watch. But then, the Exp could also be the sporty watch, complemented by a "real" dress watch..
