add them both to the inventory.

MortgageGuy · 25 May 2011, 08:21 AM

Tough to say without trying on the new Exp II or even seeing it in person... I would pick up the Sub now and if you like the EXP when it comes out and dont mind paying a premium grab one

Z-Sub · 25 May 2011, 08:23 AM

Expy II is my choice

gaopa · 25 May 2011, 09:22 AM

I'm just so happy that I have a classic EXP II white dial! Cheers, Bill P.

Watchdog · 25 May 2011, 09:43 AM

No doubt for me . . .

Explorer II Black with the Orange hand!

hunz · 25 May 2011, 02:38 PM

yeah

Starwalker · 25 May 2011, 02:41 PM

Black Explorer II! Sub-C, I have no use for it.

It might be my 2nd as well...
I just have to see it that orange pops too much or just right

hunz · 25 May 2011, 02:57 PM

or this?

hunz · 25 May 2011, 03:05 PM

ok, ok. here's the side by side comparison..

Old Blue · 25 May 2011, 03:13 PM

Fantastic pics, Hunz!
That side by side is awesome.

sdwtchlvr · 25 May 2011, 05:02 PM

Expii white

Abid · 25 May 2011, 05:27 PM

Ooooo Tough one! EXP II black

Puffy · 25 May 2011, 06:07 PM

hmmm.... can i say current exp 2 white dial?

when the 216570 is out then it's definitely black dial all the way, don't care about the Sub C. almost looks like a dinner plate...

GEO_79 · 25 May 2011, 06:38 PM

yep;new exp ii black for me

mike · 25 May 2011, 09:11 PM

The black ESP II for me. The dual timezone is a must for me.

DCgator · 25 May 2011, 09:27 PM

New Exp II for me (preferrably w/ white dial)! SubC is too common.

IT-guy · 25 May 2011, 09:30 PM

Sub C for me. Not interested in the Explorer - old or new.

nyfida · 26 May 2011, 09:41 AM

Leaning towards the explorer although have to wear it first before I'm sure. Looking for a daily wearer for my next watch and the explorer will fit the bill.

Satsu · 26 May 2011, 09:55 AM

I was struggling with that same question. If I could only get one watch, it would be the Sub-C. If I get a second Rolex, it would definitely be the new EXP-II in White. So far I'm really happy with my Sub-C.

andrew79 · 26 May 2011, 10:21 AM

i'll take both hahaha

Art 1 · 26 May 2011, 10:28 AM

Exp2, without hesitation.

Rolex Junky · 26 May 2011, 10:35 AM

Is it not funny that most of the people that have the sub c listed as their watch prefer the sub c?

I prefer the exp 2; but my next purchase will be the gmt2c.

at7724 · 26 May 2011, 03:31 PM

EX2. Nuff Said.

SS Oyster · 26 May 2011, 03:37 PM

I'm going to have BOTH

...but the Sub C I think is a little more classic / traditional / multipurpose than the new Exp II which is clearly a little more on the sporty side. I think if you only could have one and planned to wear it for all occasions, the Sub C blends in better and would look more appropriate with dress clothes as well as casual. The Exp II seems a little more casual. That said, I love it and have my name on the list. Frankly watches often look different in the flesh than in photos so it is really hard to make a good call until they start rolling in.

macscot · 26 May 2011, 10:19 PM

EXP II with white dial, but want to see it in the flesh before taking things further.
Much prefer the Sub without date or ceramic.
Choices, choices, choices !!

slcbbrown · 26 May 2011, 11:04 PM

I'm a fan of EXPII's (39mm) and bought two for sons with black face. But, here I'd go Subc. A bit more classic, and I see no reason to be excited about a mm added on each side of the Exp case. To me, this is no kind of watchmaking accomplishment.

AstroBoy · 27 May 2011, 01:06 AM

White dial EXP-II for me.
