Explorer/GMT Master made for Transglobe Expedition

Hey TRFers,

We occasionally post Rolex articles, and today was one of those days. I just learned about the hybrid Explorer II and GMT Master made for Oliver Shepard for his use during the Transglobe Expedition, and I thought it was incredibly interesting. There isn't the most impressive amount of info out there on it, but enough for an article! Check it out and let me know what you think. HAGWE!
