Finally, got my new Explorer!

It is hard when I need to take it off in the evening when going to sleep:)

I believe you guys know the feeling

Very nice. If I were ever to get a second Rolex, the Explorer would be it.

I never take them off. If you allow, it will sing you to sleep.

I will find some time to make some more pictures. Today I got my new NATO strap, I am not sure if I like it, feels to bulky at the first glance

No. Don't change the strap. Go original, my friend. Don't go down the pimp alley. Posting mine soon.

You are completely right. I liked NATO strap on some pictures, but when I look at the strap, then on my Explorer...noooooooo, no way

maybe one day some nice leather strap, I like to change the look of the watch sometimes

Nice!! I really like the Explorer, great look. Does the new one have the same deployment clasp as the subs?
