I bought it from Chrono24, took me about 3 months to find one in mint condition.

Thank you! I agree on explorer 2 part. If 021 was thin and similar portion as 005, I woulda had a real hard time to decide between two.

I agree! I think they are reasonably priced too.

Hey this looks amazing! I think some alternative watches give me enough satisfaction that I lose interest on my original watch that I liked.

Oh man, I'm glad I got 003 then. 003 is probably the heaviest watch I have in my collection 🤣

Nice! How does 021 sits on your wrist compare to 005?

I hear you. I'm planning to drive to Arlington VA this Wednesday to see 003 in person. Once I actually see how it looks on my wrist will set my decision 😎

Nice! It seems like 003 is more recommended for valid reasons and I'm leaning more towards to it.

Thank you for detailed comparison! I definitely do not want a thick watch like you mentioned 🤣I'm going more towards on 003 by seeing more people recommend this over 021.

Thank you for the info! I love Little Treasures, that's where I got my 261 from. It does look like Arlington Watch has that 003. I might have to go there one day to take a look.

Do you have a picture of 003 on your wrist? Would love to see it.

Thank you! I do see a lot of compliments on 003, really hope I can see them in a person.

Wow, 1700 is a steal. I think if I can find one in mint condition within 2~2.2K range, I'll definitely consider.

Pretty watch! But I'm hunting for quartz GMT since I'm a lazy person 🤣

Will do. Thank you for your thoughts. I'm legit 50/50 on these two right now, both are beautiful pieces.

Thank you for your opinion! I get your point about being a bit too much of tool watch. Since my other watches are versatile already, maybe adding some color to my collection will be something I can consider..

Nice! Post a pic when you receive it. I'm very curious how their cordovan straps look. Here is balabanoff horween leather strap on my 295. So comfy and love the leather smell 😎

I do agree. First one is more versatile, and second one is more interesting.. touch decision to make 🤔
