Did not in the past, but it has slowly started to grow on me. Orange looks especially good on the Explorer II.

Chrysophobia
Quote:
Chrysophobia (fear of the color orange) is certainly not a disorder that you have. This phobia affects approximately 250,000 Americans, perhaps the most famous of all is reputed to be Barbara Streisand. These people have to "avert their eyes" in the presence of this color. I, like you, am sometimes drawn to a little orange in watches. One of my possible favorites would be the modern Milgaus, probably the Z-Blue. I once had a lady friend with chrysophobia. She identified with Streisand. When she (lady friend, not Barbara) was coming up to my cabin, I rushed around to hide any object or clothing that was orange. Then I realized that orange is not a color that I have or wear in large proportion. Needless search. My lady friend, apparently, had some other issues as well (don't we all?), so, ultimately, it didn't work out. Anyway, be sensitive to anyone who seems oddly to "avert their eyes" from the sight of one of your watches - they may have chrysophobia. :-)
