Wore my GMT for almost a week.....

And I missed my Explorer every day. Couldn't take it any more so this evening so I put the GMT on a winder and put the Explorer on my wrist!


I love this watch and I still can't believe how much

Super Bruce. I'm very happy for you in regards to your collection. Also the fact that you're feeling better. Do you keep the EXP on a winder when you're not wearing it? I'm just curious? Due to the fact that there isn't a date function, you just have to set the time.

Thank you very much! I feels so good to feel good again
I did put it on the winder just because. You're right. It's super easy to set, but I've got so many winder spaces from when we had so many watches I figured I may as well use one

The best part is, when I checked the time it was spot on

I think that watch is a beauty. I just think it's too small for my wrist.

I honestly thought the same about me. I swear the first time I tried it on I thought it looked like a girl's watch on me What turned me around was wearing Tam's DJ for 3 days straight. Then I went in, with the DJ on, and tried it again. That time it felt perfect and has ever since

Have to agree with Bruce,it don't look that small on wrist,myself have quite a large wrist.And before anyone starts its not from watch winding.a nice simple clean easy to read dial.
