A collection centered upon or limited to Explorers makes sense to me as they are great watches with a heritage. The 214270 is, IMO, the epitome of understated ruggedness and class. While the Explorer I can certainly do it all, arguably better than the Explorer II, one does compliment the other nicely.

For me, I am typically in a suit and tie Monday through Friday while something sportier for the weekend is nice, unnecessary with the 214270 in the house, but nice nonetheless.

Happy hunting!

Nothing wrong at all. Not even if it was 22 of them.

Enjoy them to the fullest!

The safest place for your watch is on your wrist.

Not wrong, the EXI is a great watch to pair with an EXII

I think you are as sane as the rest of us. If you like Explorers then you like Explorers, nothing wrong with that at all. I like divers watches, but I don't really know why!
