I've got a problem with my Explorer...
...It doesn't want to leave my wrist! My other two watches are getting no love at the moment. It's perfect in every way; size, simplicity, clean design, it has it all.

If his thread elicits a snarky feeling from you, you are in the wrong place.

I think it’s because the balance between form & function is perfect on that watch.

It's a common problem. I wonder if someone has reported this back to Rolex to do something about it.

Or take it to BWD and get them to blacken it. That will surely kill my appreciation for it.
