Incoming 36mm

I have keeping an eye out for the right 36 mm Explorer to add as my go to watch for the office. I came across a great example of a P series 114270 that the original owner hardly wore over the years and never had polished with box and papers. It’s such a comfortable wear and provides some added diversity to my lineup. I feel like I’m good for awhile having eliminated redundancy in my lineup. Each watch has role.

Thanks! Now you see why I bought those endlinks from you. I think this will look great on a strap.

That's a nice looking 36mm Explorer. You also have a really nice three-piece collection there.

Congrats! Great choice. Mine is probably my favourite watch, mind you mine is all scratched up and not in nearly as nice shape as your! You got a beauty there.

Btw great 3 choices in your collection there!

That's a very tight and sharp example. Barely worn looking at it.

Lovely, careful though - you may find your other watches get much less wear!

Beautiful watch! I'm wearing my 14270 right now, it's the watch I wear the most out of my collection. I especially love the 36 mm size because I barely notice it's there. You got yourself a great example!

Excuse the reddish tinge, I'm at a restaurant

Gorgeous watch you have there! I agree the size is perfect and the most comfortable watch I have owned. It’s an elegant tool watch if that makes sense.
