Guys i need your advice between the two above mentioned. Currently i own a sub 16610 and a black face daytona. I want to add another piece but cant seem to decide between the two. Hoping to hear from owners that have both.

thomaspp · 22 January 2013, 01:43 PM

I'd go for the expy in light of your 16610. Not a hulk fan despite wild popularity on TRF.

Don't want to consider a polar expy for some dial diversity? Good luck!

FNFZ4 · 22 January 2013, 02:40 PM

I would say Explorer 2 42mm

z32turbo · 22 January 2013, 02:41 PM

I'd go for the Hulk over the black Exp 42.

Jeffin · 22 January 2013, 02:42 PM

That's like comparing apples to oranges. SoOoOoOo how about both in that case.

Psmith · 22 January 2013, 06:58 PM

Exp II

Cru Jones · 22 January 2013, 07:05 PM

both very worthy additions, but, LVc because (i) you have two black dials, (ii) new subs are great, (iii) if you are anal about bezel scratches, the exp ii's finely brushed bezel will bother you, (iv) that green dial is sublime, (v) glidelock!, and (vi) the matte dial/glossy hand combo on the exp ii isn't executed very well.

Roller07 · 22 January 2013, 10:07 PM

The "Hulk".

strafer_kid · 22 January 2013, 11:01 PM

Explorer Black 42mm wins it!

Goedie · 22 January 2013, 11:04 PM

I vote for the hulk

Vincent65 · 22 January 2013, 11:06 PM

get the sub

gmtm2 · 22 January 2013, 11:39 PM

go for the HULK!!

SaddleSC · 22 January 2013, 11:41 PM

One of my all time favorites...

Gato · 22 January 2013, 11:43 PM

Explorer 42

kultschar · 22 January 2013, 11:44 PM

Sub C!

I agree, not a fan of a green submariner

hijo de la luna · 22 January 2013, 11:53 PM

LV of course!

TAKUYA · 23 January 2013, 01:17 AM

Just went to my AD to pick up my explorer 42 black dial yesterday after I tried several other Rolex sport watches. I do really like the blackish/brownish dial + brush Bezel + the orange hand, and very comfortable for daily wear, even its size 42 mm. IMO, explorer 42mm is better than subc lv all around from the movement to the price, cause I dont like color watch and dont care much for diving.

jcclx1 · 23 January 2013, 01:34 AM

Another vote Expl II.

globalmedia33 · 23 January 2013, 01:42 AM

The Hulk.

topjimmi · 23 January 2013, 02:04 AM

I'd go with LV...but just because you have two black dial watches.

FremStar · 23 January 2013, 02:11 AM

Beautiful pictures everyone!

Deej, I am unsure if you already made your choice, however, if needed I will post a side by side picture later on in the evening so you can get another view of both...

Since the 1655 is my all time favorite Rolex timepiece, I give the edge to the Noir 216570, however, the 116610LV is a force to be reckoned with... The glideclasp is unbeatablle... I am actually wearing mine today...

Trouble15 · 23 January 2013, 03:35 AM

Since your Sub & Daytona are both black face references already I say change it up with a Hulk or white face 216570.

Solo118 · 23 January 2013, 04:30 AM

I'd say subC on this one. The explorer is really fantastic in every aspect, but that sub is so classic and the green dial/bezel is so unique

TSW · 23 January 2013, 06:09 AM

Green any day of the week!

Going... going... and SOLD to the OP!

samuel019 · 23 January 2013, 07:14 AM

I'm partial to black dials. Obviously. Lol. Get the Exp II. There's just so many special things about the Explorer. It's a great watch. I will never ever flip mine. Sorry I'm just not a fan of the Hulk. Don't get me wrong I love my Subs but never the green dial.

Rocco22 · 23 January 2013, 07:19 AM

Hulk

GEO_79 · 23 January 2013, 08:25 AM

Exp ii

nauticajoe · 23 January 2013, 08:55 AM

Definitely the HULK!
