In the UK I’ve been quoted a 6 month wait with two people ahead of me. I’m not confident one will materialise at all.

I would welcome a ceramic dial on there, but it won't happen as it will be the poor man's Daytona and take something away from the latter.

But it would really be something.

Polar 42mm is one of the best Rolex designs .Period . Bargain price and able to get without selling grandma or waiting until your grand children are born .

Love it. I have a black one and I was actually kind of blown away by how much more I like it in person than in pictures. Considering white one now!

Congrats! Have had plenty of selling regrets myself, so I can relate. Glad you've got another EXP 2 on your wrist again, bet it feels good!

What a great piece. I finally bought my Polar one year ago after thinking for a year or so. I was hot and cold listening to a lot of negativity that seemed to be going around. No more of that and for good reason besides the shortage. Now it seems to be loved by most. I'm glad I finally pulled the trigger. My AD has had only one since mine in the last year.

Beautiful, just don't know if I could do the 42mm case. I have small wrists.

Congratulations on your new watch

There have been a few comments about the size of this model, does it wear bigger than a Sub?

Oh my gosh, the Polar is fabulous.

It's my next Rolex, for sure.
