Rolex

Oops...

 

I went to the AD to pick this up for my wife:

 and quite unexpectedly came away with this one too:

It seems the Rolex traditionalist do not like the 216570 all that much, but to me this is the best looking Rolex currently on the market. I have always liked the Explorer II, but never enough to feel I had to have one, until now. I really feel Rolex have done well with this one. I like the bigger size, the lugs, the "fat" hands, the orange hand, absolutely everything about this watch. Also looked at the black dial, but in my opinion the white dial works better on this watch. And it really wears very comfortably, perhaps because I am used to big watches.
