Has anyone experiences with the Rolex Explorer I 39mm? There is a version with SA3135 that costs 400+ which is quite a hefty price considering that the watch is pretty basic. Is it worth the price tag?

In my opinion not, it´s next to impossible to get one with all markers well aligned. Definitely a watch I would only consider to build from scratch.

Awesome! which model is that exactly and manufacturer ^^

JF Factory 15400.

Worth pointing out that the band is nothing like the gen. Also, be aware that the blue dial gen is an extremely rare watch in the real world.

had the jf 15400 black dial yesterday for a while before passing it to the new owner

It's perfect. The crystal is so crisp and clear it's amazing.

Thanks for starting this cool thread. Love the strap on your PAM. May I ask for a link to where you bought it, if that is at all possible?

Is there any factory that does a good 15400 bracelet compatible with jf head?
