Sounds like there's a nice gap in your collection for a Polar.

I know a ups driver. He regularly wears a SS sub date. Get the explorer.

edit: ok you went with the Sub.
I was thinking the same thing too Adam. Unlike you, that's where it ended. I don't have the ability to remember in that kind of detail.

To the OP, I'd go with the 16570, it complements the 14060M perfectly. I know you are concerned about the similar case and hands but the bezel, dial, hands as well as the dial are opposite to the Sub and just as great.

So I've officially gotten the 16570 bug after heavily considering it and trying to envision all of the choices on my wrist on a variety of situations. It's made this decision not even a close one. My only concern is that once I get one it'll take over all my wrist time from my two favorites (Speedy and Sub). I'm almost considering flipping one of those to help acquire a Polar EXPII, but I'll wait and see how business goes this spring and go from there.

I think the white dial would stick out and go against what you are looking to accomplish with a more understated look. Maybe a black dial Explorer?

Otherwise...my first choice would be the Pelagos. Understated...classic...and oh yeah, that titanium!

You need a white dial for some variety.......16570 Explorer II is my vote.
Good luck with your decision.
Cheers
