Theres a review of the 39mm http://www.rwg.cc/topic/140026-a-pictorial-review-rolex-explorer-214270/page__hl__explorer__fromsearch__1

Normal 1 finger On left hand autumn to spring and on the right hand in summer (as the wrist is thinner). Can't be bothered to adjust. Only like SS, can't stand leather and een more so rubber. Also don't like heavy watches such as DSD, as even with one finger they tend to swing around.

Hi Just joined. found the forum via Google for an Explorer I rep. Not really a collector as have had a series of Swiss watches for 30 years. The one thing i can say is that they all had the faults, the Baume and mercier stopped after six months, the Ulysse Nardin stopped three times in 18 months before i got my money back, and the bezel fell off my gen (bought at Geneva airport) Rolex TT Submariner, so don't believe in Swiss reliability. Found the Rolex AD extremely snooty because there were some scratches on the watch (just from computer work, not fighting sharks) What i discovered with the Rolex is that the only people who commented on it all asked was it a fake and then looked at the second hand to see if it was going smoothly! Started collecting Christopher Ward watches but three of those went back because they weren't working. Through the Christoper Ward forum I found out about Parnis and got a sterile GMT II rep. Been really happy with it and it is my beater but now want to move into something more realistic. Read the review of A Pictorial Review - Rolex Explorer 214270 and have just ordered it.
