Yes, without much thought...as long as you are not paying to much more for the Sub Date.

The Sub Date is a bit more versatile. And, I think it looks sharper.

Depends on which watches you currently own. The Exp 2 has a unique look, different from most other Rolexes, while the Sub date looks like the Sea Dweller and GMT.
If it was me and I had only one watch, ie the white Exp 2, then yes I would flip it for the Sub date. |

Well, I'm going to be the red hot pimple on the butt of this thread, but I would not trade the polar for the Sub.
I love that white dial!

Seems like everyone has a sub. The Exp II is a great tool watch and has been called the "stealth" Rolex.
I vote Exp II. Let us know what you decide. |

Overall I prefer Subs so I'd say flip....but I DO love the white Explorer 2. Ideal situation would be having both!
