34mm + 39mm Explorer as a pair?

What do you guys think about the new Explorer 39mm and the Explorer 36mm as a pair of him and her's watch?

Err....do you mean 36mm Explorer for her instead of 34mm?

Sounds like a great idea..

Come to think of it the 39mm Explorer looks almost similar to the Milguass in terms of shape and case minus the dial and date (obviously). I have a slight interet in the Milguass GV so it seems a waste to have both a 39mm Explorer and Milguass.

The millie is 40mm. Either one would be a great choice, the Explorer is a classic while the GV is alittle more in your face.

But obviously go with the one that sings to you

Good luck with the purchase!

i think if it can be pulled off, then go for it!
i still feel that a 36 would be too big plus they look very similar at a glance
but it would be interesting, if you do pics would be great
