Yay finally a Rolex thread! My 1996 15200 can finally be put to rest, as it's replacement Explorer II 216570 will be arriving soon. I'm looking for nice straps, particularly orange in colour for the Explorer II, does anyone of you have experience or know any good strap brands?

Thanks heaps! I'll definitely check this brand out. That orange strap looks really really good!

Beautiful! Just copped my 216570 yesterday in Polar white, and I must say I have the same comments and sentiments. My bros got the Submariner and GMT Master II together with me, and the Explorer II somehow just stands out more. My hunt for the strap continues...

Here's a pic of my acquisition, apologies for the so so picture,



Definitely a much better size! I've been thinking of the new Yachtmaster since it's revealing last night....poison is strong....

And they also announced a Blue dial/bezel Pelagos with their new in house movement, and the Black Pelagos will also be updated with the new movements! With no price increase!

It is COSC.




Down side is, 5 rows of text on the dial instead of 2 on the ETA version.

Does changing the strap to something like Rubber B void the warranty? I've been looking around and there seems to be mixed replies

Got my first Rolex in form 2, 15200. Currently 32 and wearing polar 216570. Aiming for DSSD or GMTc BLNR.
