Congratulations on the explorer and more importantly your firstborn! I’m also waiting on an Explorer from my AD. Do you mind if I ask where in England you are based?

Congratulations. I just picked one up myself yesterday. We may be the lucky bunch who get one before it gets discontinued in April.

Congrats and welcome to the club. The only thing that changes with time is you grow even more fond of the Explorer. Especially once you start making memories with it

On a railway track course today. So the Explorer is coming with me. Up early every day. Makes the day just that little bit more enjoyable. The Explorer will be looked after but will not be a watch box Queen. Cheers.

Congrats, it's a great watch. I've never heard anyone say the proportions are off though. That's crazy talk.

Use the button next to the "quote" that has the speech marks. That will save the quote from that message. You can do this with multiple posts to reply to them all.

No way. The scale up is pretty much perfect.

I took my Explorer for a shift of fire servicing today! Was a great Friday all round. So happy with this watch.
