Big thanks to Dan for giving me a heads up on a New Explorer 114270 that was still sitting in his ADs case.
Bought it, got it, and wearing it!

Unless Im mistaken, Im pretty sure youre the guy I bought an 114270 from over a year ago. I still have it, in fact wearing it right now. It is definitely a great watch.

Sunny Arizona · 13 March 2011, 06:10 AM

Yep, Peter from USCG if I remember correctly! I had a couple of these over the years and as you trade/buy back and forth I realized that it was my favorite by far. I have a couple of others (sub 16610, Explorer II) in the safe but they have sat there since this one arrived last week.
It is by far the most comfortable watch I have ever owned and will not be going anywhere

Yeahnah · 13 March 2011, 07:20 AM

Congratulations Brad.
The design of this model is so well balanced, that it makes me wonder about its successor. I don't wish to offend anyone who has the new 39mm exp. but imho this one wins hands down.
