Love the photo. Shows why lumed 369 markers really aren’t needed for this watch.

I’m trying to imagine this same picture with a TT Explorer... what a travesty. The SS is perfect. Great picture.

I had the opportunity to visit your country in 2018. What an absolutely beautiful place. I also had my Explorer II with me for the trip.
Wonderful country, people, and culture!

I'm so jealous my twin daughters are really into rocks and minerals they would love to drop a bit of new glowing lava into water and save it.
