Think that's the same one that's been out for a while.

this one has the hands put in the wrong order?

any other major flaw on this watch besides the hands arrangement, i also noticed the case is not the same as the gen when comparing them at the sides.

It's actually pretty good, but there's supposedly another one in the works by the Noob factory. This one has almost accurate rehaut engraving, and is super lumed, althought the hands and dial sometimes don't match in color uncharged. Pbdad relumed mine for me, so it's all even white.

It is an amazing good looking watch in real, and very impressive on the wrist. One of the watches i like best at the moment.

I have a few each of various versions from el cheapo and el primo ExpII's...both black and white dials and it is, IMO a must have for a replica collection.

I love the look of the polar Explorer II. It just has a nice, classy look to it.

Explorer II 42mm white dial

Who is selling the nicest Explorer II at the moment guys?
I love mine but the orange "Explorer II" text on the dial is kind of faded, and not as strong as the pics of some I have seen.

is that so? which country is that with ADs OOS for white dial?
in my country, its not very popular and there are no problems with getting one.
even on the grey mkt, its sluggish with Mar-Apr 2012 dated documents still finding a buyer

whats more popular in my country (slightly) is the black dial. the 42mm takes a bit longer to warm up to people it seems. but its a great presence on the wrist no doubt abt it. On the topic about orange explorer ii font, i saw the gen and it really isn't that bright orange vis-a-vis the rep. its pretty close

explorer 42mm white dial

great comments guys - keep them coming.

IMO this is a really underrated piece (gen or rep) as it does have great presence, mainly due to its simple clarity. It tells the time and date supremely clearly!!

Where did you purchase this from if you don't mind me asking? The lime on the hands looks the same colour as the hour markers. The biggest tell ATM with these. I have the ultimate from Josh "cartel version" and the ultimate from puretime. The crown guards are better on the cartel version and dial print is a little darker the orange writing I mean

i can't tell you how pleased i am with my Sead Explorer 2 black dial. only mod i did was scrape out the old bezel paint and repaint it myself.

if i could get a proper date wheel, this would seriously be gen-spec.
