I like time-only watches and after I bought my BB 58 six months ago I found that 39mm is a sweet spot for me. Through the years on this fantastic forum I never paid much attention to all your Explorers. But then our friend “Echi” showed his 214270 a few w...

New Rolex! Wow Wow Explorer!

Huge congrats, Lars. You caught a superb Rolex. We should see more Explorers, here, and more often!

Thanks Nico! Yes it flies a bit under the radar.

Which is even better!

Totally agree.

If only people could get one!

Agreed!

And now they're down to the 36mm version. I was hoping for the 39!

Yes the 36 mm is also a bit too small for my liking. But the original, which many in here like, was 36 mm.

Coincidentally, I am wearing mine today. Congrats, Lars. Looks good on your wrist :-)

Thanks Echi. It was your last post of your Explorer that made me pull the trigger (i will send you a bill 😂)

This Echi is very dangerous. :)

Ha ha yes!!

Ohhh!!!!! I forgot to send you the bill for my Air-King Nico. All your cool pictures of the AK 😅

Aaaah, I lost a good opportunity to stay silent... ;)

Ha ha ha! “Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards” - Kierkegaard.

LOL. Good one. That reminds me this one: " The rumor of my death is a bit exaggerated ". ;)

Ha ha yes I always liked that one too.

Remind me who said that?

Mark Twain?

Yes you are correct Nico, Mark Twain.

I feel relieved! ;)

We seem to share similar tastes with Lars where time only pieces are concerned.. maybe we should double vlad him with a railmaster, old and new :-p

Hmm, now that sounds like a very reasonable idea... Challenge? ;)

A Gang of Vlads. Hmmmm....

Ha ha is it a conspiracy? 😅

The beginning of... ;)

:-)))

This is a great looking watch, and many congratulations!

Thanks a lot. Good size for me.

Very nice piece!

Thanks Patrick.

An all time classic.

Thanks a lot. Yes it is a classic.

Big congrats!

Thanks a lot takman. I am very pleased with it and even more so after wearing it. I can only say: “go for it”.

Congratulations Lars

Thank you Drek. I enjoy it even more after one week wrist-time. Such an easy watch to wear.

The 214270 has everything going for it. Size, lume presence on the wrist. It’s just a great watch.

Totally agree. I am thrilled to have it and wear it. And yes, the lume is great on this Mark 2.

Huge congrats! This one will timeless and getting lots of wristtime i have no doubt!

Thanks Yacomino. I think you are right - I have worn it non stop for a week. Such an easy watch to wear.

Am pretty sure I would do the same if I had one!
