Im sure theres more love for it than you think. Its one of the best everyday wearers of all time. And one of rolex's more tasteful offerings.
I think that watches like the Rolex explorer and the 2500 Omega aqua terra are the ones that non "WIS's" would choose.
Theyre real-world watches designed to just tell the time, not dive to great depths, or impress with needless complications.
Decent, but not un-needed WR, not too dressy, not too sporty, robust without being clunky, a reasonable size. Real goldilocks watches.
THATS why, on forums like this they dont crop up all that often - too many normal people buying them!
