I had a Explorer II homage - sterile dial. It always had condensation when I got sweaty. My watch guy couldn't even get it to pass any kind of pressure test. Couldn't get him too excited in finding the issue. He just handed it back to me and shrugged. The solid end link bracelet isn't too bad. GMT function worked well. Kept OK time. Date wheel is OK too. Crystal cyclops seemed a bit crooked. Case had some very sharp edges in the inside of the lugs. Then about a year later the case tube stripped out. I would hold out for a Seiko or Hamilton they produce watches for a bit more coin but are so much better.
