Re: Re-Issue of the Rolex Explorer II (Orange Hand)

I agree with the above sentiments...it also makes the Heritage Chrono at under half the price something of a bargian imo.

Still wearing mine and loving it...the dial is bare in comparison to these Rolex's, the Tudor has the same quality in that sense of the 74033 Monaco dial....less script is a good imo.

Cheers

: Jeff,

: I had a walk around the Rolex and Tudor stands at Basel. There was
: not a single Rolex that I would want- I quite like some of the
: older Rolexes, but the new ones are crassly styled with no new
: ideas. The new Daytona? Horrible.

: Then I walk around Tudor- I liked the Heritage Chrono from last
: year and this year they have the Heritage Advsior (below),
: Grandtour and a range of 5-6 watches that I'd love to take home

: Maybe I just don't "get" Rolex- but give me a Tudor any
: day of the week ahead of any modern Rolex.
