Now that it's been a year since I've owned the Explorer II reference 16570, it's about time for me to give you guys an update. The Explorer II is a great watch, but that does not mean it is a perfect watch. In terms of wearability and versatility, it is excellent, but the lack of longevity in the lume and the rattily bracelet can be considered as "flaws". If you guys enjoyed this video, don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more great watch content!

Today marks exactly 1 year of ownership with my Explorer 2. Since it's come into my collection, it's been an excellent companion ever since! Let me know your thoughts down below 👍

First and only video I've seen of yours. I like that you pair the watch with different outfits to display the watch versatility, which many channels simply don't do. Ty and subscribed.

Torn between the Explorer 2 and a Milgaus, both with black dials. They are both understated, which is what I want and have some personality. Tried a Milgaus on recently and loved the feel, just not sure if it is too highly polished for regular wear/use. Any help appreciated. Nice video man.

I actually prefer the older oyster bracelets with the hollow center link because the bracelets are lighter than the solid bracelets, and to me, more comfortable. I know it's a personal thing, but I don't prefer the newer bracelets that are all solid and weigh more.

As you age, you will find that it will become more difficult to read the watch. The contrast is not great between the thin hands and the black dial. Until then, it is an awesome watch.

Rolex is always so slimy with their supposed watch diameters. Most of their line ups are .5-1mm smaller than their “on-paper” diameter

Yup, I believe the "41mm Datejusts" are actually more like 39.5mm lol

Is his watch a fake? The clasp with the rolex symbol should be smooth
