For sake of full-disclosure I've owned the Submariner and 40mm Explorer-II both gifted to daughters) and currently own a pair of 42mm Explorer-II's.
That being said, I think the 39mm Explorer-I is the coolest watch available.
If it was 42mm I'm sure I'd own a pair.
Even though I LOVE my Ex-2's with more complications, crown-guard, etc....
I think LESS-is-MORE.....and would be perfectly happy with only the Ex-1 for a lifetime.
I like it WAY more than all of the other blingy offerings....Precious-Metals, Daytona, GMT's, and Subs.
The Ex-1 is a PERFECT watch.....
