The Rolex Explorer Experience

Hello Fellow Explorers! (updated 3/11/2011)
This is the betta version of this blog. It is still new and some work is in progress.
The following outlines will give some basic idea behind this blog:

Watch if you do have one:
1.This blog is created more or lest to appreciate any Explorer whom really owned the Rolex Explorer.
2. Why do you choose the Explorer?
3.To share the true experience of an Explorer with the Explorer
4. Photos!Yeah , of course! We need photos of the Explorer in action. Perhaps with some scars :-)

Experience:
 Here we defined the Explorer as below:
1. Must have been visited at least 4 countries abroad.
2. Distance more than 10,000 km journey - accumulatively.
3. Duration more than a week journey on a single trip.
4. Must have subject of interest or investigation to be shared with.
5. Must at least own a Rolex Explorer, before or after the exploration.
6. Or keen to own the Explorer as self-reward for the achievement.
7. Mountaineers are Explorers in a different class. You are excluded from item 1 and 2 but must inform the highest peak that you have reached.

This blog is a tribute to the watch and the men in some manner, and some spare the money on the trips before s/he can eventually purchased the Explorer after sometimes. We comprehend that very well sirs! Anybody can submit and share their experience, but priority is to the Explorers as defined above.


Objective:
1. Motivational and Educational via experience of the Explorers

Again this blog is for Explorer/Adventurer in its true sense. Thus, let share your passion/study/investigation/accomplishment/achievement in your subject of interest with the rest of the Explorers. It must be a great story!

Language? Not a big problem, just write!
As I don't think Tenzing Norgay had a good command in English or perhaps writting when he conquered the highest peak on earth, and yet he got the Expy on his wrist. Correct me if I'm wrong sirs.

Anyway, you must be an explorer before the Explorer deservely placed on your wrist right? Not necessarily :-) Because I personally appreciate other watches too.

So send your story to myexplorerclub@ yahoo.com to be shared in this blog.

BE THE FIRST!
"The spirit of the Explorer."

Cheers!

  1. All but #5 I can say. Don't own an Explorer unfortunately. It is sadly out of my price range. It is the classic Rolex though in my opinion. Simple, durable and accurate. Exactly waht a fine watch should be.

    Countries:
    Israel
    Philippines
    England
    France
    Taiwan
    Canada

    Distance I believe is over 10000km

    1 month in England
    3 trips to Israel-2 weeks each
    2 weeks in Philippines

    Subject of interest
    In Israel-visit as many places mentioned in the Bbile as possible. Fascinating trip.

    Philippines-my wife's country-Travel the country meeting her relatives and learning about where she grew up. Learn something of the culture of the place.

    England-Traveled throughout visiing the places mentioned in various works of Shakespeare.

    As for Mountains:
    Climbed Masada in the Judean desert
    Climbed Monument Mountain in the Berkshires
    Climbed Mount Gerylock in the Berkshires.

    Great fun all around!
