EXP II because it's less common, less bling, no fat lugs, and more distinctive looking. As I mentioned in another thread, the shine and bling of the Sub gets tiresome after awhile. Just my opinion.
This is what I was thinking. The bezel is just a bit too shiny and in your face if you know what I mean. The old Sub could be worn under the radar and was near perfect (visually) the upgrades on the newer models are very appealing to me. I am over the old bracelets (which is why I am selling my 16710)

I dont have a problem test driving an Explorer 42 as I would probably be getting a pre-owned model and could easily flip it if needed.

On another note I just went to Rolex on 5th ave and tried it on and it looks nice in person and nice on my wrist. I was wearing my GMT so I did not compare it to the Sub-C (totally forgot to ask the salesperson to bring one as well) The problem is that the bracelet was not sized, so it may be that once its sized the case might look large on my wrist.
