Reason

Hiya! Sorry for the late reply. Well hmmz why did I avoid it for so long... hmmz .. I guess it was mainly because I grew up in an environment whereby everyone thought that only Rolex was a good watch. So I went for the the other makes and went one full circle and found that I am happiest now with my Rolexes! For some reason can't seem to wanna let them go hahaha

My next Rolex is likely to either be the GMT IIc or the Daytona.

hi old birds,
how many dial is used by 14270?

The print below the '6' hour mark is "T swiss T 25", i notice one 14270 at one pre-own shop at chinatown, the print is 'swiss' instead.. tried surfing the net for info but in vain..

[brokenvow]

i believe the dials before 1998, had the T<25 or T Swiss Made T tritium lumes.
aft that it's either 'Swiss' or 'Swiss Made'.
anyone can verify?

I thought EXPLOROER is a men's watch n women like diamonds laced watches ?

[seiko.citizen]

you thought wrong mate... while its true that diamonds are a girl's best friend, sometimes the elegance of a simple clean gents watch overpower the clutter and bling of a ladies.

Hi All,

I have a question. Hope you can assist.

Is the current explorer 2 using the same new movement as the GMT 2 ceramic?

If the movement for the explorer 2 has also been changed to the same movement as GMT2 Ceramic, why is it that the price for the explorer 2 with the old movement (say z or d series) is not going up while the price of the GMT2 is moving up.

Many thanks for your clarification.

The latest M series Explorer II with the 3186...is the same as the GMT IIc.

Oh the price increase was up ever since the GMT IIc was introduced...there was a hype as the old GMT II was discontinued.

Demand was there...so prices go up
