Friends of Chilao: Eric Wind Quoted on Adventure-Ready Watches

Eric Wind was recently quoted by Friends of Chilao on which watch he would bring on an adventure:

“I would take a Rolex Explorer II – it’s a tough mechanical watch that should work for years without issue, but I also find having the 24-hour hand is helpful. You point the hour hand toward the sun in order to get the location of north in the Northern Hemisphere and in the Southern Hemisphere you can do the same to get the location of south, which is helpful in case things get hairy! You can do the same with the Rolex GMT-Master, but the Explorer II’s metal bezel makes it a little bit tougher for harsh and rocky environments.”
