  • Beauty in Black - A pair

    Recently, I accompanied the gf to the "Beauty in Black" exhibition at the Singapore National Museum. Beauty in Black is an exhibition of about 20 black dresses from famous designers.

    I was bored to be honest but a quote displayed at the exhibition caught my attention..."With one black dress you are safe. With two, you have double-edged security"...interesting...what if I applied it to watches & myself...

    "With one black dial watch I am safe. With two, I would have double-edged security?"

    Following that train of thought, I decided to add a brand new Explorer 214270 to my recently acquired black dial daytona...









    Yay! I feel much more secure now! But the gf failed to appreciate the logic

    I don't quite realize the meanings of the quote. It may never occur to wear 2 dresses at 1 time, though you may wear 2 watches. Either on the same wrist or 1 each on each wrist. Anyway, nice pair of watches. Congrats on the recent acquired Expoorer.

      It means that if you have 1 black dress in your wardrobe you are safe for any occasion but if you have 2 then you are doubly ensured for all occasions.
      More pics of the Explorer just before I take it for a jog on this lovely morning. I'm really beginning to like this little fella

                Haha my thoughts exactly!! I'm still pondering over my 3rd blackie though...should it be a Sub (14060M or 116610) or a Datejust 2 116334 black dial....

                        Does a nato strap work on the explorer?

                        I just swapped the bracelet on my explorer for a nato...here are some pics and I need your feedback. Does the nato look work at all with the explorer?

                        Or I...
                        (a) have ruined a perfectly good watch and should swap the bracelet back immediately,
                        (b) may have something going but need to source for a different nato or,
                        (c) have committed a travesty and should be sent to Rolex hell where the entire team who designed the 42mm explorer is burning right now?

                            NATO doesn't seems to work here.

                            The new bracelet please.
