New Exp II = itchy wrist, other SS watches = no itch

Hey guys,

I have been wearing my new EXP II a lot since my son was born (I bought the watch to wear to his birth and to events in his life -- and then give to him when he is an adult).

The EXP II seems to be giving me a itchy wrist with small welts. However, I wear other stainless steel watches including my Y-serial GMT II and, my Prometheus, and my Omegas with no issue.

Is there something different about the steel in used in the EXP II that may cause me to have an allergic reaction? I did a search and found that many have nickel allergy that causes this issue. But if that is the case -- why are my other SS watches not causing a problem.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
