I'm excited again! 36MM Explorer I on the Way!
Wow, things change fast in my house! I posted a thread about how I had to wait on my 36MM Explorer I because of house renovations but its back on! Explorer I is coming baby!!
I'm putting this bad boy on leather and NATOs and whatever other straps I can put on it. I'm going to have some fun with this watch. Pictures to come upon arrival. |

Hmmm
$5000 dollar reprieve. She decided the All Clad cookware was good for another year? The Explorer may just be my favorite. Understated elegance. Goes well in the kitchen and on the fore deck. |

Funny thing... I see so many people here who love their explorers, but I have never seen one out in the wild?
I've seen Sub, DJ, GMT, but never any Explorer.... What gives? |
