One is a 12 year old watch, and the other is half that; both have the identical movement inside..
As said, get the one that you want to put on your wrist each day.......

i like both actually but when i look at the white dial explorer 2 i find it is the daily watch for me as my PAM111 is a scratch magnet.

It looks like, from the links that you posted, it's a GMT2 coke not pepsi
In general I like the Pepsi more - but of the 2 that you showed me it's a toss up because that Explorer is newer and if really only worn a few times, is totally mint. Good luck though, both watches are very versatile and nice! |

Since you ask I would choose the GMT Master II as I would love one of these with the Coke bezel! Good luck

I've got both and would go for the GMT 1st - Explorers are generally easier to find at better prices.

I would suggest the GMT, but I'm a little biased :yes:

GMT for me, the bi-directional bezel is for more use I guess...
