Just received this little gem today from another forum member.
Explorer II 16570.
Right now it is sitting on a very comfy Everest strap. I have a few Zulu's I might play around with. The watch is light and comfy. It complements my 214270 with the black dial and no date. This one has a date, of course and the white dial. I did own a 216570 in the past, thought the 42mm was on the large side for my wrist. This 40mm version is ideal. I think this will be my daily beater.

timeless and amazing piece. sits very nicely on your wrist. I'd also consider a light brown leather strap ;)
