I did .....I like the blue (pity they dont do a 50% graduated green bezel... but I am sure that has been discussed somewhere on this forum )
.... but it is not necessarily an "everyday" in my mind... #1 for me was always going to be one of the classic triumvirate of Sub,GMT or SD.... SD was top of my list ..... I am really glad I finally tried an EXPII 42mm... it wore way bigger than I expected.....

I did.... blue is nice... would love to see it in the green - sure that has been discussed here once or twice

for me it was always going to be one of the "classic" triumvirate of Sub, GMT or SD.... that being said I did like the EXPII 40mm... the newer 42mm size felt much larger on the wrist than I expected....

Congratulations!

Two bits of advice:

1) Never flip your first, its special.

2) Watches are not like wives, you can have many and they don't care when you do.
