Released: Explorer 42mm from Josh

[thogaa]

Haven't ever seen the real deal but looks good I say

[dutchguy2]

Very retro, and yes it looks good although I cannot compare it to the gen either.

Wonder if it's 316F

Looks pretty good!

[PaulVanDyk]

that rep is horrible! i don't think they got a single thing right

bezel number font, cg, crown, dw font, hands...what a total waste

[thogaa]

Can anyone do a side by side shot of these issues?

[Mickey Padge]

Yeah, the bezel numerals are much bolder on the gen, the hour hand on the rep has too much lume, seems to be the wrong shape too, and the crown guards are way too fat and chunky.....

I like the white dial version, but will wait for the next version, anyone know what factory this is from? I hope it is a lesser factory simply stealing a march on one of the better ones! (noob)

[thogaa]

I've ordered one just to get an idea on how it's put together. Might buy an updated version later on

I look forward to seeing some pics!

The fact the dealers don't list this as a 1:1 "best" or "ultimate edition, leaves me with hope there will soon be a better, more accurate effort

Oh I really hope so - this is the first rep I've been excited about in quite a while!

[watcher]

Anybody got one yet? Tempted to mess about with one although the bezel numbers will be impossible to alter!. Cg's are not a problem though.
