Are you lost without the date function? If not, then the Explorer!

I owned an Explorer I for three days and flipped it for my Sub C. It is the most underwhelming Rolex I've ever seen. It didn't even feel like a Rolex to me.

The Datejust is a real classic and very versatile.

Explorer. 36 or 39mm, depending upon wrist size. Explorer is the epitome of Rolex. A real basic tool watch that is slim and understated. Not a dilemma at all, IMHO. The great thing is, whatever you choose, if you don't like it, flip it!

Can go wrong with either, I would pick the explorer for myself.

If I wore a suit and tie everyone, the DJ!

Cheers,
