Just bought this watch. Had to have it the first time I saw it. 42mm the perfect size.

The Explorer 2 is a very nice watch indeed, but not a to wear, I feel, for all occasions.
That's why my discision was for the Explorer 39mm, which I wear 24/7, covering a dress range from sports, in the gym and the tux.
The Explorer 39mm for me, the perfect watch! Beautiful!

Glad you're enjoying the new watch, however your dismissiveness of the 39mm Explorer should not go unchallenged. It's clean looks and versatility make it a very desirable watch.

Ironically, this review & pics made me miss my 39mm Explorer 2 very very badly.
I don't think I could wear the big orange hand.

This post is just what I needed to help me with my decision. I sold my 16570 awhile ago but now I wish I had it back. I have been toying between the two also and I think you just helped me with my decision. 216570 it is..
