Loving my explorer
I have been living with my new explorer now for the past 4 weeks. I just cant explain how much i have totally fallen in love with it. Although i have many other watches daytona - sub - patek ect i absolutely love the simple clean classic look of this baby just cant take it off my wrist. Exactly the reason i choose it over the newer 39mm.

Beautiful! I understand completely. The 36mm Explorer is my all time favourite. Have been enjoying mine since the mid 1990's, and although I have several other watches I am always returning to my Explorer.

Stunning. I think it's my favourite modern Rolex. So simple, yet so perfect.

I know what you mean. I just buy my explorer and I can't give up to smile.
Like you I love the simple case. It's stunned me how perfection could be so easily reached. Simply the best... |

So funny how we each see different things. You say you chose this over the 39 because it's clean and simple. That's exactly why I chose my 39mm. I absolutely love the look of both as to me they are nearly identical. I went with 39mm simply because 36 is too small for me.
Lovely watch. Enjoy every moment. Personally this watch is pushing me to really appreciate the lack of a date. It just makes it so damned clean. Love the classic look of both.

It definitely "fits" its skin better than the 39mm IMO.
I just traded to a Sub-c from the 39mm because I felt the hands were too small for the dial and hard to read except at the perfec tangle. |

I love the simplicity! Less is definitely more with the Explorer.
