Maybe not a "nice" watch, but I got my Pebble last weekend after about a year of waiting!

Love it! Just curious, do you work in a field where the milgauss is necessary or do you just like the watch?

Not necessary. I'd been wanting a white faced watch for a while and it was a toss up between the Milguass or Explorer II. When I saw the lume on the Milgauss I just had to have it.

Just got the Omega Speedmaster Pro and unworn Vintage 1968 Omega Seamaster as graduation gifts. Not a bad reward for 19 years of school.

That looks fantastic. I have to say, that's probably one of the first rolex's that I've really really liked. Otherwise, I think I prefer Omega more

My next watch might be a GMT and I thought about the Explorer II after seeing photos of it. But then I went to a boutique to see it in person and try it on, but it seriously looked 'cheap'. There's just something about the Explorer dial and hands that looks very 'plastic' like in person. That, and the bezel just doesn't do it for me.

Given the choice between the Explorer and GMT Master, I'd opt for the GMT Master.

I'm currently considering the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Hometime. Much more dressier GMT, but it's very clean (no extraneous numerals) and what I want out of a GMT.

Omega is owned by swatch, and Rolex has very much tuned into look at me.

Mid 5 figure Rolex's don't compare in taste and class to Patek, and at mid 5 figures you're at the bottom rung of Patek.

Having said all that my wife said I could buy a new watch when I turn 40 that'll mean my Seiko thats been everywhere will be retired and turned into a vacation watch. I will never have the money to have the Patek Celestial so I'll get one of these two
