Picked this up. Impulse buy but something I’ve wanted a while!
Always been a huge fan of the 16570. It was my first sport Rolex years ago and I’ve always had a soft spot for it. Over the year I’ve fallen in love with the heft and quality of the modern 6 digit models.
My AD couldn’t get me one of these for about 6 months. So I purchased one from a local collector who bought it a day prior and didn’t want it. Stickered and unsized! I even paid a 200 dollar premium (probably the first to do so on an explorer II haha) Loving how it sits on the wrist  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Congrats...the perfect daily wearer for an adventurous spirit.
I’ve seen lots of incomings from you Andre, do you have just about all the SS references covered? |

Congrats!
I had a black dial for a little while. Nice piece, I just had no use for the GMT. Enjoy!

Love it. I've been leaning this direction lately for something that is tough and reliable but also has a GMT function for when I travel. This post isn't helping me keep that cash in my bank account. Haha.

Very nice. I remember you have a white dial milgauss. The black explorer II would have also been a cool addition for your collection.

Looks fantastic. I’ve got the 5 digit version and the 6 digit with the black dial. Love them both!

Another great watch, I always found it maybe too similar to the white Milgauss but looking at it like this, it truly is a very different game you've got going now. . 200 bucks as a premium is a small price to pay tbh! Congrats!
Which of your watches do your wear the most? Or just rotate everyday? Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-A600FN met Tapatalk |

Congrats dude, I have the same reference. It’s chunky but oh so comfy, legibility is off the charts, and has a legitimately robust feel to it. Very cool.

Very nice. Personally, I’m indifferent about the dials, but I do like the Explorer case and it’s proportions.

Congrats! I love that watch, especially the polar! I sold mine a few years ago and have been tempted ever since to get it back (especially lately)!

Nice.
I really like mine more and more each day. I've had mine for a year and have been wearing it almost every day since. |
