Remember, nobody "has issues" until they do.

if you're out exploring, it's gotta be the explorer.

I'm Italy, not wearing a Rolex would probably get you more noticed than wearing a Rolex.

Enjoy your trip. Buon viaggio!

Italy and Europe is the land of watches, don't worry about it.

Both. But if you can bring one, bring your explorer

Italy is not more risky if you compare to some area in Paris.

Been in Italy many times including Naples wearing Patek, Rolex, Omega without any issue.

Wear your watch and enjoy it.

Enjoy your stay in fabulous Italy !

If you gonna swim in the sea (in Sicily at September should be warm) then Submariner
As for safety- no worries

As long as the explorer is pressure tested it should be able to handle a light swim in the ocean at 100m depth rating no?

Both are easily identifiable as Rolex. Since sub is easier to replace I’d bring that. I would not be too worried.
