Sub no date, I'm in the minority but don't care for the Explorer. Just buy what makes you happy.

Explorer II is a great choice.
Pelagos blue is always a nice and somewhat unique piece.

I think the Polar Explorer II would fit right into your collection. Great wearing watch even in 42 mm and you do not see them very often.

I sold a couple of Breitlings to buy more Rolex, maybe then go for a TT or PM watch.

What's the point of this thread? Go to an AD and try on a bunch of watches and get the one that speaks to you the most. All you're going to get here are biased responses. By page two, you'll have recommendations from the entire Rolex catalog (and apparently from Tudor and AP too) and you'll be back to square one.
- "I'm thinking about getting an Explorer II, what should I get?" - "Gold Sub!" Some of you guys crack me up. |
