I did have a wrist shot. Forgot all about it!

f16570 · 6 July 2008, 07:10 AM

No decent wrist shot, but this is a cool watch.

WatchTimes · 6 July 2008, 09:11 AM

I have always wanted the Exp II with a white face, the black
just does not grab me the same as the white in this particular
Rolex.

Thats just me though.

marshallr47 · 6 July 2008, 10:18 AM

Great shots by all.

Gooks great on the Nato, Skippy.

Mine white face has never been noticed (at least to my knowledge) or asked about. I love it for that reason. My red/Black GMT II is what gets noticed the most.

Cool. Has anyone experienced someone asking about the black dial version of the Expy II? Which dial color is "lower profile?"

WatchTimes · 6 July 2008, 01:29 PM

I think most people think of a black face when thinking of a Rolex sports watch as most people who arent watch nuts know a "Gold Rolex" and the Submariner.

Two stunning tool watches!

Trurolexer · 7 July 2008, 01:15 AM

White look more STUNNING!!!

asq69 · 7 July 2008, 01:50 AM

Black is stealthier, though..IMO

WatchTimes · 7 July 2008, 01:57 AM

See to be honest when it comes to a Rolex I think
white is more stealth, everyone thinks black due to
the Sub when they think Rolex Sports.

The Exp II is quickly becoming my favorite Rolex! Perfect size, not too heavy, and also pretty sharp looking. Not your common look for a watch.
The black face seems like an all purpose look, however the white face, in my opinion seems dressier.

jmsrolls · 7 July 2008, 05:43 AM

I was going white until I saw the Sea Dweller Date at a local AD. The black dial was absolutely stunning without the Cyclops.

All it took was a "Cyclops-ectomy" for mine to have that same look:

White on black seems to go better with my attire.

That's a perfect fit! What size is your wrist and did you have to add or remove any links?

I have a 7" wrist so my AD did remove one link to make the Explorer feel comfortably on its new home :)

Ronaky · 8 January 2012, 02:28 AM

Here is my new Explorer II V series...
I first aim to buy new EXII but due to my small wrist, the 40mm looks nicer on my wrist. Here you go...

Marrk · 8 January 2012, 02:47 AM

@Ronaky: Superb pic!

Makes me want to buy an Expy II right away!

Mickey® · 8 January 2012, 02:50 AM

The best...
There are lots of Black Dial Rolex's but if you want an Explorer White is the way to go IMHO.

Thaiguy · 8 January 2012, 02:59 AM

One of the cleanest looking watches out there!

Can you tell that white is my favorite color?

Mickey® · 8 January 2012, 03:02 AM

That is a nice Pair...
