I would wait to see how much you like the new exp II when it arrives, then base your decision then. No need to pull your hair out now when the new exp II hasn't been seen in person yet.

This is the one I'm leaning towards. Any owners out there that can comment on their satisfaction?
good point anyone have an idea when this is going to hit the ADs?

Black sub would be too similar to the DS.

My heart says the EXP II, but variety says the LV.

Thanks for the post Mike. as other members metioned, Sub C Black is too similar to the deep sea. I'll wait on the EXP II to come out and try it on along side the LV.
When will it hit the ADs?

From your options, the Explorer II.
Maybe consider the Milgauss? |

From the choices you provided, I'd go for the white Exp II. It would be a nice departure from the black dial + black bezel norm.
But ... if they were my watches, I'd much rather consider something a bit less sporty, e.g. a SS/WG DateJust II. |
