Noticed this on the EXP II..

I may just be color blind but why is one black hands, and one stainless steel on the same reference. Anyone know what the deal is kind of like the black hands better. I got one earlier today (2nd pic) and just found many pictures of the other one.

Hey buddy, this looks like more a light thing than a different color of hands IMO, try to see it again... The 2nd one looks SS hands too for me...

All the hands on the black dial Exp II are part steel and part black - in your picture it just looks all black due to the lighting. The white dial version does not have this and the hands are all black.

It’s just the lighting dude. Check our the very last pic in the listing - the Lume shot. You can see the steel better there. The hands are steel so they are going to reflect whatever is opposite them. Do you really think a company like Rolex is just randomly putting different hands on their watches? If you don’t believe us why don’t you contact the seller and ask him what color the hands are.
