Pray tell what design cues a land watch should have? Cos the exp2 looks just like a GMT to me....

Ok will let the Rolex marketing and product design team know.. cave explorer image and gmt hands should be mutually exclusive n would be sacrilegious if they co exist.

Guess you are right, I got to add a explorer 1 to complete my air land sea theme. Please advise if the exp 1 also a marketing gimmick as a land watch

Your understanding of old GMT is incorrect and understanding the feature also wrong.

Of cos any user will reset their time to the new local time zone.
While gmt master has a rotational bezel for ease of having a quick ref of a second time zone. The old gmt movement on a fixed steel bezel (ie exp 2) doesn't give any purpose other than telling day or night

Bruh quote

On the original versions of the GMT-Master and the Explorer II, the hour hands were not independently adjustable, so the only way to display a second time zone was by rotating the bezel and using the 24-hour hand for reference. Since the bezel does not rotate on the Explorer II, the bright orange, 24-hour hand of the original version was no more than a large AM/PM indicator.

only 1 at the moment... any non divers to recommend?

Sinn 556 is sporty and elegant.

Seiko Presage SARX055 has an interesting dial. GS Snowflake is great too.

JLC Reverso for the square look.

Now design cues = image, guess u are really buying into the Rolex messaging :s13:
imo neither exp 1 or 2 has any distinct design cues that makes it a Land watch
But I guess fanboys have their own justification for their collection ba
