I've come to prefer my black dial Explorer II to my Sub...my older eyes find it much more legible (which is also why I chose the black dial over the more popular white dial, for the contrast between the hands and the dial). And I travel enough to make the GMT hand relevant.
i just tried this watch on at my AD. i too was concerned about it's 42mm case being too big. side by side with my gmt it was barely bigger.....it wears small for a 42mm watch. all the videos make this watch seem like it's a behemoth on wrist
Love the explorer ii and its functionality… it’s the perfect travel watch as you won’t call for attention but having a nice a GMT functionality and precise instrument. It won’t damaged that easier like a GMT bezel as well
Wear my Polar daily, and it’s becoming more and more perfect as time goes by… for me, a great watch!!! I have average wrist size, and don’t think it’s too large at all, it’s one I will never sell!
I don’t know where you’re getting a case size of 42.7mm. Because it’s not. It’s exactly 42mm. I assume you’re counting the crown guards which you’re absolutely not supposed to. And the watch is still very popular. Good luck getting one at an AD or new for msrp anywhere but an AD.
Who did your video editting? Horrible. Scatter-shot different E II models, too many shots to the E 1, which you aren't even talking about. Plus, video doesn't coordinate with your narration. You need to re-edit this whole thing, my friend. Amateurish.
“Watch lovers” love the EXP 2, not so popular among the general public.
True that! The Explorer II definitely has its dedicated fanbase among watch enthusiasts
As an owner of many Rolex watches, I can honestly say that the Explorer II Polar is one of my absolute favorite watches.

Sounds like you've found the perfect fit for you! That contrast on the black dial really does make a difference, doesn't it?
I think the awkward sizing argument is only for the 6-digit Explorer II, the previous generation is 40mm and feels more compact.

I have the explorer 2 polar dial. Love it, it’s my daily
A very nice watch that's totally underrated.
I heard the same thing about the Explorer II being produced in very low quantity. A lot lower than even the Pepsi GMT. Thanks for the vid!
Wear it daily. And it's a good tough professional watch
If you like white dials, you'll love it.
And if you don't like the white dials you have a black version as well
True
I love my Polar 🥰
Love the size. Gives it presence and acid test it's comfortable

Great watch and great size - 8.75” wrist and wear it (black face 226570) daily - no problem. Those that know know, many don’t which is good.

Got it with black dial🤗
Great, watch, and alot for its money date and GMT function
I Love the EXP2 👍🏻
the best unconventional Rolex
The narrator speaks well but self-contradicts throughout the video

🤔 I'm not an expert but I'll take a guess ... could it be because it's 🤮 ugly?!
no u
@@wreagfe - ooh, are we playing a game?
Do I have to guess the missing letters?
Haha, beauty's in the eye of the beholder! Some love it, some not so much. Different strokes for different folks
Just curious. Why do you call beautiful out of Rolex lineup?
@@Ge0rGi.maybe not ugly but bland in comparison to its blingy ceramic siblings.
It’s the size man, the size. Could’ve made a much shorter video 😂
Yes. The size... Well, it's a watch for men. Not for boys.
