Great pics! Thank you!

The 36mm explorer is amazing! It’s the only other Rolex I would like to own.

The two tone Explorer just looks so wrong.

There is some good news for value shoppers ! The TT Explorer will probably be overly abundant in just a few years at a decent price due to their lack of box and papers !

First of all, thank you for sharing the great pics.

I'm blown away by the black EXP2. For years, the 216570 has been the core piece in my collection, a watch that is-for me-the perfect size and fit, and is perfect for just about any occasion. My only knock? Never been a fan of the so-called "phantom hands." Well, well, sometimes prayers do get answered.

Of course the meteorite dials are amazing on the new Daytona's, but I've got to say I'm more than a little disappointed (for the WG OF) in the decision to jazz up the dial but leave the clasp as is, when they could've very easily upgraded to the new glide lock "light" on the other newer OF models, elevating its status from iconic to legendary.

Oh well, such is life. As is said, so many times around here, maybe next year...

I think they really have perfected a great model.

Matt hands, slimmer tweaked case and no floating Orange hand on the black dial.

The gloss hands made it a bit cartoony

I want both new variations lol

The white gold meteorite is beautiful. The "new" Explorer II is a letdown in my opinion.

JakeK · 10 April 2021, 04:19 AM

Holy smokes the WG and RG meteorite daytonas look amazing. total home runs there.

johnnyjazz · 10 April 2021, 04:19 AM

The matt hands on the explore 2 could do with a bit better finish on the edges, but it is growing on me.

macrowatch · 10 April 2021, 04:41 AM

What do you all think looks better? RG or WG oyster flex and meteorite?

Oh crap. I wish I hadn’t seen the pics of that WG daytorite... ❤️

Great pictures. Thank you so much for sharing.

Matte hands on the polar are a step back. Clashes with the sheen of the GMT hand. The glossy hands and indices on the 216570 look much better.

Yeah in theory it does but I have to say, it would look great on my wife. I look at the TT exp and think it is a great watch on a woman.
