Pics of explorer II. Wrist shots galore
Posting a few pics of my recent acquisition just because I can't stop staring and taking pics! :)
Having fun dressing this one up and down. This is my first piece with adjustable clasp and I'm really appreciating the adjusting on the fly. Why don't they all have this??

Cool Watch. I love it. Hopefully going to get mine next week. Tried both the black and white dials in AD over the weekend and could not make up my mind. I had to take more time to decide. It might be the single decision that I have spent most time pondering over in my life. I don't actually think you can go wrong with either. Great Photos

Very nice pics! I love the Exp II. Initially, I was loving the 'Polar' more, but the more I see the black dial, the more I am leaning towards that model....If I wasn't getting a Black dial SubC, I'd bag me a Black Exp II...
Enjoy that awesome watch. Love it.

For those on the fence, go try one on and go for it. Fell in love with the polar but in person the black won out. Wish I could have both! |

My next will be the EX II, but with the Polar dial (polar...is really just a cheesy way to "class up" saying "white"). hahahaha
Beautiful watch!! |

In my opinion the old 16570 was great but you had to have a white dial. The new one however, the black dial is a stunner.
