Great review! BTW...I own this watch and am curious as to what kind of crown the EXPII has since there is a solid line under the Rolex symbol on the crown as opposed to the three dots of a triplock?

Just curious. Thanks for your help anyone.

Welcome to the forums kelsod333!

The Explorer II has a twinlock crown. The line under the crown indicates that its a twinlock. They are guaranteed water resistant to a depth of 330 feet or 100 meters. The twinlock is also smaller than the triplock.

On the Submariners, you would see a crown with three dots under the crown and that is indeed the triplock.
