Same reason the GMT, YM and Daytona have one.

Plenty my friend look around. Search the interweb and this forum. For a desk diver sure, for folks like myself that actually use these watches for anything life throws at them, I would have they cracked on a mountain bike ride in 30 minutes. Sorry, that’s a no go with perhaps their last true to watch. Crockery has no place on a tool watch, great for jewelry though.

The Explorer ii is a ss bezel now and unless I am mistaken the OP mentioned/speculated Rolex may put a ceramic bezel on it.

Explorer II is perfect the way it is, but to each their own. Everyone makes and spends their monies on what they like....

Yes, but what's the problem with a cereal bowl bezel, if the rest of the watch is a cereal spoon? Seems like a match made in Kellogg's heaven.

I think that’s trying to solve a problem which doesn’t exist.

Nope, love mine the way it is!

This is because we all baby our watches. Heck, most people don't even dive in them. If we only used them to explore caves as intended we would see a lot more damaged.

So, while the statement is true, a deeper analysis is needed.

Ceramic is hard, but the issue is the thickness (or thinness on this case). Due to that, it can be hit and broken somewhat easily if the object is sharp or pointed.
