The current EXPII is a refined Pelagos

[Daniel23456]

Folks,

After having the newest EXPII reference for around a month I have a few conclusions to share with those who are interested…

1. The Explorer is a better, more refined & stainless steel Tudor Pelagos in white

2. It is very legible, almost 0 reflections. Sometimes I can imagine that there is no crystal on top of it. Just like my previously owned Pelagos.

3. One of the most flat wearing watches due to its thicker slabs & smaller caseback. Wears very well.

4. Very understated and sporty. I have a guy at work that always asks about my watches, he asked me which watch this one is and was a little surprised it was a Rolex but said that he digs the looks.

5. You need to wear it tightly for it to be comfortable. It is very comfortable to wear, but the moment it is a bit loose (when the extension is open and my wrist contracts) it becomes heavy and floppy on the wrist.

6. The cyclops is almost invisible on this model and the white on white (white date disc on the white dial) enhances this even more. I had a sub date a few years back and sold it only because of the cyclops.

7. The stainless steel bezel makes it wear a bit smaller IMO. I had a 16570 2 tears ago and I always thought that it wore smaller than my Sub date 16610 and similar to the 114270.


That’s it for now guys.

Hope it was helpful for someone
