Make sure to tell your wife to watch the patients now and not the watch!

I've only had the Exp since April so it went back under warranty. The last time I had a watch serviced at RSC (Bexley) it was my Blue Sub, the cost in July 2005 was £210 & it came back looking as if were new. If a watch is serviced on average every 5 years thats equals £42 a year, a bargain.

 Nice pics Chris. It is refreshing to see a picure of an Explorer II without a scratch near the top of the bezel.

After the initial wonder of wearing I put it on the winder & gave some wrist-time to the DJ, a few days later I noticed it was running way behind Bluey & the GMT (its companions on the winder). It was a mystery because as you can imagine its cosseted & hadn't been bashed or knocked. I reset & sure enough the next day it was 2 minutes behind the others, I phoned RSC & back it went asap. Been home a couple of days now & its fine
