I love my 214270.

I’ve been thinking, if one was to be had, would I also desire a 41mm Explorer?

Would you?

Nope

PaulChronometer · 27 October 2020, 12:48 AM

Definitely not.
Arguably, 39mm is already (a tad too) large, but still quite wearable. Anything beyond that will kill the esthetics.

HERITAGE82 · 27 October 2020, 12:49 AM

No, I have big wrist and the Explorer as it stands is the perfect size.

Kirsty87 · 27 October 2020, 12:59 AM

Nope

No thanks

Peter Toronto · 27 October 2020, 01:04 AM

No, but I might buy one if it was 36mm.

If they released a black and white 36mm i'd prob try to get both

SpaceDweller77 · 27 October 2020, 01:42 AM

In a heartbeat. I am hoping they release the Explorer 1 in 41mm.

campfire · 27 October 2020, 01:45 AM

Nope. Though I would get an Exp2 in 41 if they made it. (Have the current 42. It works and loving it as well.)

WyoWatch · 27 October 2020, 01:45 AM

Absolutely not

infinitywatches · 27 October 2020, 01:47 AM

It'll be too big for me.

Same. A polar white would be "waitlisted" for years.

stormshadow · 27 October 2020, 01:48 AM

I probably would. 7.5" wrist, and I am debating whether to get the current 39 or just wait, hoping it will be 40-41mm (maybe a white option as well).

Fred48 · 27 October 2020, 01:55 AM

39 explorer is perfect for my 7 inch wrist . I would only go to 41 if a watch had a dive or chronograph bezel, as the watch face itself appears smaller (not so for the smooth polished bezel of the explorer). Otherwise, watch face is too "pie plate" looking in my opinion. An example would be the Tudor Black Bay in 41; would love it in a 39.

Rumar89 · 27 October 2020, 01:59 AM

I have worn both the 36 and the 39. ~7 inch wrist. Prefer the 36, although the 39 is very wearable.

Would not buy a 41 and think Rolex would ruin the line if they upsized the watch again.

I think its a bit of a trick, the 39mm Rolex's are the same size as the 41mm Rolex's.

juve · 27 October 2020, 02:12 AM

Nope

Belugahype · 27 October 2020, 02:14 AM

I honestly think that would ruin the line, there's already a ton of great examples of 41mm Rolexes... I think it would be overkill and unnecessary

Jumping on the No train. I like it just how it is.

Pius XIII · 27 October 2020, 02:27 AM

I absolutely would.

TimeAZ · 27 October 2020, 02:27 AM

Nope, would have no interest for a 41 mm exp1.
I would definitely consider a 36mm update though!

winst · 27 October 2020, 02:29 AM

No, I had the Tudor Black Bay 41 with Blue Dial and loved the look of it, but it was too heavy and just didn’t look right. Explorer 39mm is just perfect proportionally and comfort wise for me. Really do think they will ruin it if they take it up to 41mm.

doramas · 27 October 2020, 03:36 AM

That's too much speculation. Who knows how big the next Explorer will be? Maybe it will stay the same and only change the movement to a 32XX

Spoonage · 27 October 2020, 03:39 AM

I'm fine with the current 39mm I have already. If I had a choice I would rather pick up a vintage 36mm over a new 41mm Explorer IF that were to happen.

Marcjvr · 27 October 2020, 03:42 AM

No. There is no reason whatsoever to increase the size again

jb335 · 27 October 2020, 03:49 AM

Should have been a poll, and nope!
