Exp II Mod

Good and not so good

I am pleased with this watch, it looks good and it is the closest I am ever going to come to a Rolex Explorer. My only complaint is the strap is hard to remove. The clasp does not come off smoothly and it has sharp edges which can make it unpleasant when you take off the watch. the strap also has an small adjustable element within the clasp and that slips out of position easily. I plan to remove the strap as a result and add a leather strap.

Absolute value for money.

This watch's proportions are exceptional. The finish and workmanship, timekeeping and power reserve either matches or exceeds my four swiss-made watches, none I might add where bought for under $5000 USD when purchased. This watch doesn't pretend to be something it's not with the "Seiko" name clearly printed on the face and the Seiko movement branding visible through the back. Andrew's creation value proposition being at around 10% of their cost any of my swiss-made watches, and with the constant flow of negative Youtube vlogs regarding the 60% swiss-made rule, Chinese made watches with a with a swiss-made tag, this has forced me to pivot the focus of my watch collection to Japan and their watch offerings. With brands such as Seiko, King Seiko, Grand Seiko, Credor and creator's like Andrew. Sorry, I have one watch in my collection that surpasses my Andrew's Exp II Mod and that would be my Grand Seiko SBGM22, just a classic design. Andrew and his brand has ended my swiss-made watch adventure and focussed my attention on the Seiko movement quietly going about their business inside Andrew's watches. Well done Andrew, we'll talk again soon.

Beautiful Explorer, 2 sekio movement

10 out of 10 it's good watch for work rather than wearing my Tudor GMT FXD every day. Runs a bit slow but if I leave facedown overnight it catches up again. The finish is excellent. Very happy customer. Buy with confidence from Andrew top man.
