No I'm afraid not..

Gave me a tracking number for the package, and I know it could take some time before it shows, but 0 updates so far..

Really nice looking explorer!! Purchased with Li last week!

It arrived on saturday! Oddly enough the tracking code never worked, but it popped up in my local carrier app on friday, and arrived on saturday.

Here's two quick pics:

Really enjoy it so far Got a bit excited when I stumbled across the rep market a few weeks back and already got a submariner and have a yacthmaster on the way as well, will have to evaluate if I'll keep all three of them. But so far the explorer feels like a keeper

Big thanks to Jtime for an amazing experience from start to finish (small minus for the tracking code never updating, but that's potentially out of their hands as well..)

You will keep all three!
Enjoy your new explorer
