No wonder I missed it - 16570
I posted a few weeks ago that I was missing my 16570 and bought this one. It is the most balanced watch on my wrist. It probably is because it is 5 digit and just the right weight, size and purpose - just perfect. I think it is time for me to start adding more 5 digit references to my collection.

No doubt 5 digit is the way to go, until they get rid of the giant lugs.

Don’t know why Rolex replaced the 40mm Explorer II with a 42mm case. A move in the wrong direction in my opinion.

Now I am thinking of getting a black dial one also. It will be a great combo to have. Prices on these are getting ridiculously expensive.

Yeah absolutely love mine! The only thing I had to change about it was putting a 214270 bracelet on. I love the feel and clasp of the modern bracelets and it takes it to a whole other level (for me).
Since then I also removed the cyclops and now wear it on a Super Jubilee lol

the polar is a unique piece. white dial is not something that you see every day.

Just got a polar 16570 with 3186 movement from Japan, one of my favorite Rolex and the size is perfect. It's also one of the few rolex that I consider switching strap
