Just in. I registered my interest at the AD I bought my SD4K years ago (when you could walk in and get most anything). Was told might be at most a year, probably sooner, but was definitely attainable, which I was fine with. 37 days later it's on my wrist.

Been eyeing one of these for years, 224270 version does not disappoint :love:

Brilliant watch - mega congratulations

I am of equal parts either to sell this or do what you did and make it destro - yours is so cool
I wore it upside down for a while before modding it, just to be sure it was a keeper. Lol

Do it!

Congrats!!! I absolutely love my Explorer!

I can’t wait to try a 40 at some point.

Thanks gents. Loving it beyond words. They say it's a "40", many reviews I read said more like 39 tops. I just measured it with my calipers, hair under 39 (which is perfect for me for a mostly dial watch).

:cheers:

The process to get the RV ready to sell continues. Today was cleaning out the inside and taking all our decorations off the walls to restore it to a factory look.

I’m liking the four radio set up!

Bridge to bridge, bridge to port, distress… I’d be worried I’d grab the wrong transmitter!
