I understand that it fits to the GMT hand somehow, but for me it makes the watch look like a RM.

So you assume it’s gender? Maybe it defines as a RM??Ä

Or as a Gingerbread man, who cares.
Where I come from there are 3 genders: Men, Women, and Watch.
This Explorer, as Orange strapped up as it is, is a watch I guess
I picked up an orange rubber strap from Amazon for C$40
I didn’t have high hopes, but it’s not bad. It was easy enough to cut to length and it works with the Clean deployment clasp (the included clasp is trash). My one complaint is that the vertical fit between the lugs isn’t great — it sits a bit low (probably 1.5-2.0mm too low). But it’s a nice low cost option. If this watch enters my regular rotation, then I’ll spring for a Rubber B or Everest strap.

I also picked up a black and orange rubber strap with curved ends and a tang buckle from Amazon.
Again the curved end fit isn’t perfect. But for C$22 it’s not bad.

Thanks for sharing but what size for the black strap to fit perfectly Explorer II?I also picked up a black and orange rubber strap with curved ends and a tang buckle from Amazon.

I'm curious if a set of SEL for a Sky Dweller would fit on an Explorer 2 case. I'm thinking of trying a non-curved end oysterflex style strap and thought these might help fill the gap between the case and the strap. The Sky Dweller is also a 42mm case diameter, so I'm hoping that the radius of curvature is the case as the 42mm Explorer 2.
Would be interested in this too. Did you already order these?I'm curious if a set of SEL for a Sky Dweller would fit on an Explorer 2 case.

I just ordered. Parts should get here between Oct 5th and 11th. I’ll post an update once they arrive.
