Great watch!
There is one thing though - can you check the hour hand alignment when minute hand is exactly at 12h? I had this issue on the same model and once I noticed - I couldn't unsee it, had to give the watch to the service ...
Here's the photo of mine before the fix.

Great looking watch, very comfortable on the wrist even more so than the Sub, also, contrary to popular opinion by those of whom most had never owned it, much nicer black dial than the white one

I much prefer the earlier matt dial version with floating hands.

ExplorerII is just a perfect watch for me. 42mm hits the sweet spot, brushed Oyster bracelet. I like both colors but the Polar is a nice change from my other watches. Truly an everyday "Tool" watch. My do everything timepiece.
