IMO a Rolex collection needs a white dial…doesn’t have to be a EXP2, but it’s such a unique watch.

I think it's a cool watch. I love everything about it. The size, the big hour markers and hands. Yeah, the bezel can scratch but it's still a cool watch IMO.

Got mine (black dial) from the local AD today - so pleased with it. Was worried it was going to be too big but is fine.

My black dial 16570 is probably my favourite Rolex watch.

unfortunately, the orange hand and writing do nothing for me, and seem to detract from the watch compared to the simple red.

A damn comfortable watch, with a lot more comfort than the Submariner 41. Is it invaluable? I appreciate him very much for his austere style, for his otherness, unique style, readability and orange flavors.

Scored a EXP2 polar recently and it fits nicely on my 6.5 wrist.
And yes I couldn't believe how irresistible is the timepiece.

Fantastic watch, so clean and easy to read too. One of my favourites.

Hadn't worn for a few months and gave mine some wrist time this weekend. Black dial on the 226570 is awesome and carries off the 42mm better than the white dial for anyone thinking the watch was too large. I still like the polar but just think the black addresses the size issue a fair few bemoan....

As one OP mentioned it is so clear and easy to see which makes this a great watch to own.

One is a watch for adventure; the other, an Apple Watch.
