Agreed. I would have a hard time deciding between this meteorite and the mocked up Panda! Rolex, are you listening?!

Since you are taking requests; can someone PS a Polar 216570 with white gold hands and hour markers instead of the black hands and hour markers?

Thank you in advance!

If the 116618LB wasn't so pretty, I'd be very tempted to swap out the dial and insert from the LVc.

Some seriously great ideas here (not so much the Explorers for me). Rolex is gonna wonder why they didn't think of these first!

X 2, I really like some of the concepts here. Although I disagree about the Explorer, the two-tone really caught my eye. My first thought was: Rolex will never make a "working" watch like an Explorer, a watch meant to climb mountains and explore caves, with any Gold in it, but then I thought what about the Submariner? That is a Divers watch, working watch, and it is offered in TT and gold, so why not the EX?

Great ideas,

definitely the TT explorer II looks great, but very similar to the recently released TT YM.

The original YG Hulk looks great too. I'm surprised how much I like it considering, I've never liked the Hulk, and I've never liked the YG Sub. I think it would look even better with maybe the olive green from the DD40.

I like your thinking there, Paul.
What're the well-heeled spelunkers or mountaineers supposed to wear to the Explorer's Club banquets?

We have the many beautiful TT GMT's, and Subs. Pilots and Divers go out to eat in nice places, too...serti's, root beers, bluesies, nipple dials...

Now what about the final tool in the box? A TT Milgauss for Power Plant operators and Welders. SS & 18-karat green gold!

Love the concepts, but I'd expect an Hermes model to be leather straps. Hermes orange maybe on just the font with leather would be a winner to me.

I think my creation, the Orange Explorer II got potential but I was having trouble decide the 2nd time zone's hour hand color. I first started with white, then feel it need a pop. I go for Rolex green, it looks kinda toyish. I don't want blue that will look similar to green. Struggle what will look best against that dial....maybe you guys can help out.

Thank you Drew, I think these could be coming next Basel anyway in WG so would be great to get a preview.
