Who doesn't like the timeless looks of the Rolex Explorer. But I've always wondered what a mid-sized Explorer with sportier hands would look like. In this video tutorial, I turn my Seiko SARB 033 into my interpretation of the perfect Explorer with a hour hand inspired by the the vintage Speedmaster broad arrow.

I know this one may be controversial. People might say: "why are you hacking up the venerable SARB", or "Omega hands don't belong on a Rolex dial". I personally think the result is an aesthetically well proportioned, one-of-a-kind watch. Have fun, don't take this hobby too seriously, and stay safe.
