The Explorer II – 16570 “Polar”

 

Just arrived from PT: One of my favourite sports-watches with a taste of adventure

 

Simple but powerful design with practical GMT – complication; Definitely prefer this 40mm model with sleeker hands and green lume over the newer one;

 

Discreet and elegant, dressy, versatile, a nice contrast to the black subs - no deepwater this time, getting ready for the ice following the footsteps of such as Peary, Cook, Scott and Amundsen

 

Bracelet resting in an oil-bath for now; On for the pic:

 

 

and some marketing:

 

 

 

Wonder why Rolex never put a bi-directional rotating bezel on this one, it would make it even more versatile and give us something to play with....
