Glad to know you finally had your watch after a year but please don't make us wait that long for the pictures.

Seems to be an Exp II epidemic here... we may need a medic?

Thanks. I've worn a DeepSea since Feb '09. After wearing a Panerai for so long, it was hard to wear a smaller watch. So when the DeepSea came out, it was what I wanted. A larger Rolex. But, in my heart, I have always loved the Polar Explorer, and missed the one I had sold for the DeepSea. When this was announced at Basel, I knew the day would come when I'd have to sell the DeepSea to get this one. I went back and forth on it for months, but in the end, I just HAD to have this watch. I got a great deal on here from Tony G... i couldn't be happier! Thanks to you guys, and the other Exp 2 owners who put up such awesome pix, you guys helped me so much. I'll miss my DeepSea, but a little orange will always make it better.

I am glad to see that the ExpII42 is really getting popular around here! I just picked mine up this week and couldn't be happier with it. Enjoy it in good health.

Congrats on your new watch! What made you choose the white dial over the black besides you liking the white more? Because with the black dial, the orange hand stands out more brightly & so does the rest of the dial.......
