Explorer "Perpetual Calendar" Collection 2006

I apologize for the slight specks on
the upper case ...
I had quickly wiped off the back before talking pictures. However this
Explorer got a real burn-in. Since I was late for a dinner appointment and since
Bangkok's traffic was very sticky on that Tuesday night and almost reached
grid-lock level in some areas, I had to run all the way from Siam Paragon to the
restaurant near Lumpini Park. When walking at night on a side walk with a lot of
traffic, the combination of luminous hands plus backlight shows. The headlights
of standing cars can make it difficult to read the time. I was very happy to
swiftly walk to the restaurant and on the way start to play with watch. The
leather band was of course soaked when I arrived at the restaurant 25 minutes
later, but it was definitely worth in order to make these exciting first moment
after the purchase even more memorable.
