| I have owned a previous Rolex (smaller model) and have enjoyed the dual time function on this model. Super quality and dependability. Love the watch! |

| Explorer II is a very good watch( any Rolex for that matter), it combines functionality and style, the dual time is great for frequent travellers. |
I love this watch, but...

| I really love this watch, but I hate the fact this baby retails for $4.450 and can be had for $4.075. A preowned one may cost you around $3.000. Some jewelers tell you that if you invest in this watch, you may get your money back withing 10 years. That never happened to me. If you think about it, it's like buying bonds from corporations and not receiving interest in return, just your money back! Are watch aficionados subsidizing Rolex? Is the cost of wearing a brand, tradition, and history on your wrist really worth that much? I can get an Omega Seamaster 300M GMT with automatic movement Cal. 1128 and COSC Chronometer Certification for $1.630. I would be buying into prestige, tradition, and history for 1/3 of the price. Is the Explorer II water resistant to 300M? I think not. So what's all the fuss? Yes, the Explorer II is a beater and a dressy watch at the same time with an outstanding craftsmanship. I would give it a 5-star rating if ever sold for $1.000. |
