Five years ago, I fell in love with the Rolex Explorer. Today I revisit this watch to better understand its significance, why it became my favorite, and to see how my perceptions about it have changed.
I take an in-depth look at its history, how it compares to other Rolex watches, and why it’s a trendsetter. I also explore its strengths, weaknesses, cult status, and worldwide fame. Finally, I share why I believe this is the real James Bond watch, and not the Rolex Submariner or the Omega Seamaster. So, pour yourself a drink (perhaps a martini, shaken or stirred!) and join me to find out if five years later, this is still the best watch ever made by Rolex.
