Just added this, my first Explorer 1.

So good for so many reasons - 39mm size is spot on, matte dial, great lume, nice and thin, flip lock clasp, SS bezel, extremely comfortable, great legibility.

Congrats! I have the 36, and it’s my go to, very often. My dial is shinier, but any Explorer is just cool. Wear it in good health.

Noticed here in the UK Explorer prices dropping like a stone. New 40mm, 36mm and TT all failing to fetch Rolex retail prices now. The last 40mm completed and sold on ebay made Ł500 short of list. Older clean models without box and papers are under Ł4k now....ouch, but good to see a shift towards some market sensibility.
