Orange color on EXPII Hand

I like the discussions on the details of these watches.

Anybody ever notice that the orange color is not just a standard bold orange. It's actually a carefully toned out orange that really goes with the white face without being too strong. It stands out, but without looking out of place. Some individual human being (or team) carefully made this design choice.

If you look closely at any of the references, you can find these subtle elements. It's these minute details that makes a Rolex a Rolex for me...

I mean yes or it could just be that they gave a nod to the 1655.

I think it’s toned out to be more in keeping with the brown dial version if I’m honest.
