Excellent read! thank you for your time and effort into this... are you thinking that the dial is ok on the wrist?? The dial is killing this one for me, maybe the black will be better or V2 haha...

@zocker4711
You can tell when someone has passion and drive for a hobby when they go out of their way as you did with this comparison thread. This is absolutely one of the best, if not the best threads I have enjoyed reading.
I can't thank you enough for dedicating your time and effort to bring this invaluable information to the readers herein. Being a fan of Rolex, and also the Explorer II made this a true joy to review/read.
I will be referencing this thread quite often for the next month I think, just because I want to be deeply familiar with the extent of knowledge you have imparted upon this great community.
Thank you.
:cheers:

Is it worth the polar 16570 CHS?

Or the old 216570 with Black dial? (A2836 reliable movement)

[MENTION=61105]zocker4711[/MENTION], you did it again! Very informative, very detailed, a truly passionate dedication. Least I can do is to order from PureTime/Angus. Take a bow, Zocker!

Thanks for the review - its greatly appreciated.

One question I have for Noob is why are they so bad a lume application. The lume is still really bad and uneven everywhere.

How can they apply such good lume on the v7 Subs and on the ExpII the lume has always been bad? The black dial seems the be much better applied for all versions.
