These are my current favorite tool watches (have dress watches too)
I am thinking about what should be next and I lean toward the nex EXPII with the white face as it would be my first tool with a white face....

What would you suggest?

PS the Breitling is an 806 from 1965 made for the Iraqi Air Force - as it was intended for military pilots I have included it in the tool watches :)

I am a very huge fan of all Explorers generally.
The only Explorer a absolutely do not like is the new EXII42 in white.
In black al dough in a second! What a beauty!!
Just my 2cents.

A EPX42 would be a perfect addition to your collection!

I think a White Dial EXPII would work just fine.

White Exp II 42. A nice change from the all black dials...

+1. Although of all the Rolex lines I never followed the Explorer, I have to agree a white dial would be a welcome change.

Sounds like you apologizing for the Breitling

I have three of them and love each one as much as my Rolex's

look at all your tool watches, only colour for a tool watch dial is black!

On a serious note Sean do you own that Comex in your avatar?

I would normally have said the EXP II with the black face as I love dark dial watches but the floating hands have turned me off to that one. So I am thinking the EXP II with the white face is the one I would pick.
