What's your favorite titanium field/explorer watch?
What are the most overrated watches for you?

I tried the Longines last year and it felt a bit big on my 17cm wrist (mostly because of the very long lugs). In general I can buy a more expensive watch if I really like one, but I just didn't see many options that were particularly appealing to me on the market. On the higher end I'm mostly thinking about a Pelagos of some sort.
I tried it last year, but the lugs are bit too long for me. In they make it in smaller size I'd consider it again.
The RZE was a good watch but the Formex definitely has it beat.
Can you elaborate a bit on what do you prefer more about the Formex vs the RZE? Btw, I do love the velcro straps of the Formex Field! I wonder why so few watches are using them by default, as for me that's the natural fit for an "adventure watch".
You might also want to check out the Boldr Venture line as a more affordable alternative and Zelos recently came out with a new line of titanium field watches.
I've seen them both, but I don't like the designs much. From what I gathered the person behind RZE used be in Boldr in the past, but decided to go in a different direction. Zelos make great watches, but their designs (especially their handsets) rarely speak to me.
That's a looker! ❤ I thought about it myself, but I live in an area with poor radio tower signal reception and I'm too cheap to get the GPS version. 😀
