When it takes over 10 years to collect them you know it’s time to quit while you are ahead.

Spent enough. Hopefully only motivation I need. Also genuinely can’t think of another one I would want. Trick is not to look any more!

Agree. Tried the latest Explorer II on at Doha airport and felt to big even on my 7.25 wrist…. for me anyway.

Thankfully I prefer the Explorer II and it gives me a GMT option!

They should now cover me for all occasions.

This is a fantastic and versatile 3 piece combo.

White, black, and silver…..can’t get more classic than that.

Love to see the 36mm DJ but the Ex1 in 39mm.

Nice trio. Even with just the two explorers you'd have the perfect duo collection.

It is nice to have 3 different dials. That was the idea anyway.
