Not so on the ceramic models. He was asking about the GMTII, not GMTIIC

The band fits like it was made for the SD and I like the option of not always having to wear a bracelet. Playing around, I also figured out that the Explorer II easy link can be used in the original SD clasp for those of us who prefer its ease of use and rarely use the divers extension.
That's one of the sweetest seadwellers I've ever seen

I'm not a huge fan of the explorer but it amazes me that it only takes a single minute to completely change one into absolute awesomeness

I personally think that looks freakin amazing! I love how just a slight accent of red or green or blue, etc. sits on a mostly black watch.
