i think that's because of the white dial and kinda reflects.

yes because of the case shape.

its not using the maxi case that subs, gmt and exp are using.

Looks great! This watch keeps growing on me but wears a little too long for my 6.5” wrist.

I wonder what's on? To heck with it I'm off..

OP - Loved my Exp II - terrific lume and you are right it wears larger than the stats say.

Watch the bezel. Mine was a bit of a scratch magnet but I was a bit careless..

Enjoy.

The current EXPII seems to have the strongest lume of any Rolex.

The lume in person is very active compared to the sub and GMT on the explorer 2
