Good looking strap options guys. I'm thinking about getting an Explorer (again) and really like the look of it on a strap

Not too sure about a NATO on an Explorer. Reckon a black Omega Kevlar strap would like mighty fine

+1 on the striped nato - they're really a natural combination. The Sub is based on the early explorer design, so I guess it makes sense that they would both work on the nylon strap.

datejust vs. exp 1

is there any advantage in owning an exp 1 than owning a date just. I am wondering if one has more shock resistance or durability over the other. What do you think of a CREAM dial over the BLUE dial

thanks, very confused in which to own
