I had a white dialed one which I put on my ultrasonic cleaner. Came out very clean but some of the black paint on the number 1 in the 12 at the bottom of the bezel peeled off. Repainted it with flat black paint and sold the watch. It is a great rep really and I may pick up another one.

Congrats on the new watch. Is your crown screwing all the way down?

I don't think any of them do.
I am working on a fix for mine, it bugged me.

My date wheel is rather 'floppy' when manually changing and it's rather left biased. Does anyone else have this issue, or do I have a another mod to do? Not looking forward to pulling off all those hands.......

Mine is way left as well. And hour marker at 6 is a little crooked. And lume is a little sloppy. But still love it haha

My triangle hour marker isnt straight, lume is awesome but slightly on the green side, clasp is gappy .
Do I care?

Nope. Love it!

I noticed many of the round hour markers have burs on the side of them....

Whats up with that?

Hi

i am looking to adjust the bracelet size on my explorer II, I don't want to take out any more links if i can help it and wondered if within the buckle area of the bracelet can be 'pulled' along to use the one of the two visible notches/holes or if these were cosmetic only...

if they can be used anyone got experience or tips on of the best way to adjust the strap using this feature?

Here's my offering.... Thanks pjsayer for your excellent review of the watch that led me to purchase.

Very nice mate - looks like you got a good one ;-) Stupid question: When does your date tick over? Mine flicks at 12:00:50. My gen PO changes at 12.08. Man I love reps ;-)))

I have adjusted mine. Just get something sharp and small. It's just a spring bar.

Just checked and date ticks over at 00:00:07 ... Very pleased with it The negatives that take off some of the sheen (and I'm being picky) are the patchy lume and no ar on the Cyclops. The triangle lume has a big bump and some of the hour markers have a pin prick type indentation. The pin prick at 10 o'clock made me chuckle, its dead centre of the circle, a true quality flaw.

With the thickness of the lume on these can they be relumed?

My cyclops location is near perfect so no ar is no real biggy.

Crown doesn't fully screw in and the clasp doesn't sit flush but doesn't really bother me. The watch is really comfortable to wear and as noted before the watch itself is quite discreet.

 

[Rovin]

I noticed those adjuster holes in the clasp are very shallow on one side. Like very shallow. Think I'll Dremel mine a little deeper.

Anyone know if the new batch update the black dial to matte?

Just pull the plug on a white Exp II after reading this thread. Been eyeing this for quite a while. My 3rd purchase in this month alone! OMG! This hobby is seriously addictive and costly!

So... I got one of these EXP2 from the M2M seection, and was playing with some macro pics... look what I found!

WTF is this???!! This mean un-casing the watch!

I initially thought that that is the black paint of the hands that is peeling off.... but guess not. Looks like an insect?

 

[ShiroTenshi]

Nice watch nevertheless

 

[pjsayer]

I hope you declared it to Customs on the way through. Might need quarantining!
