Hey Guys,
Continuing the series wherein I compare older Rolex references to their modern counterparts.
In this video I pitch the Rolex Explorer 2 16570 up against the 216570, lets see which one is better.
Enjoy!

16570 black with the red 2nd time hand is just so lit and slick. A go anywhere do anything watch
Great video!!! I find the 40mm one is more elegant and refined because of its smaller case and indexes. And the 42mm comes off as more of a tool watch, and the polar version has the most legible dial of any rolex except perhaps the Yachmaster 42.
Thank you 😊 yes, it’s true what you have said about the two
Excellent round up, and exactly why I got the Polar 5 digit with the 3186 movement. Cheers.
Thank you 😊 awesome 😍
Great video Sakib. I would prefer the smaller case too, I think the proportions are just nicer on that one.
Thank you 🙏🏽 Yea me too😊
Such a great video, we miss this type of content my man!
The black five digit for me . I know most would go for the polar dial. My biggest grievance with the polar dial is the indexes . The black surrounds on the indexes in my opinion make it look cheap but that's just my own view
Rolex Explorer ii 42mm is the best of both worlds... period !!!
To each their own 😊🤗
Pretty sure you got the 42mm 😂
The Polar (white) dial looks much more legible, see time much more quickly, especially in certain lighting conditions. The dial pops at night, and the white gold hands don't get lost in the dark because the hands are blackened.
True! I love the polar 😊
I have one of the last of the 16570, bought new and still my only Rolex. I bought the black dial, but I'm sure would have been equally happy with the white. If only they had used orange instead of red paint on the GMT hand it would look less like a junior GMT-Master. But that's my only complaint.
I like the red on it as it’s more subtle 😊
Great video! The Explorer 2 is bigger but it’s a superior watch in every way- Bracelet dial hands luminova PR etc! Love the retro orange hand. They still were smart the keep the 16570 Design because it’s gorgeous and elegant. I love how discreet these watches are. I got rid of my sub 41 it was too shiny too much attention everywhere
I feel exactly the same as you. 16570 because of the case size. (Shame about the bracelet though) and I'd go for the Polar one for aesthetics.
Great video 👌
Thank you Joe😊 yes I can’t wait to buy another polar 16570 😍
I Bought the White Poler dail 42m case size and l love it! Awesome looking watch in person its got a nice warm feeling to it. I waited 8 months to get this it was definitely worth the wait.
Congrats 😊
I have a vintage explorer 2 Swiss t255 how do I find out the value and how can I restore it? The size need to be polished and I don’t have a bracelet and some of the looms have fallen off. However, the movement still works and the glass needs to be adjusted properly, I need your help. I don’t want people to rip me off at these jewelry stores.
Thank you! Very helpful!
great video. enjoyed, just bought the red hand, love it.
6 digit Polar is the best. Especially for +7inch wrists.
Ring Jäger yes, it’s a good option for 7+ inch wrist😊
While i really love new style orange hand on 216570,and the watch is improved in every way,i just can not justify the increasing in size.It’s just too big for my 16cm wrist.Looking forward to buy a 16570.
That polar 😍
😍😍😍
Thanks for the vid!
Greed Greed 😊😊
16570 with black dial and 3186 movement. More recent models just wear too big l
Indian Erkle be ballin
216570 polar 💯
spending nearly same amount of money on a used 10 yr old watch vs a brand new one . somehow I feel inclined to buy a new one it’s 42mm so be it . but yea a new version 50th anniversary model is just round the corner , . Watch people are saying grab a 42mm if possible as the new one when released will see a good bump in the price . What do you think ?
manoj d IMHO I don’t think the 216570 will see too much bump if at all..already it’s going used for less than retail..the 16570 (Swiss only dial or 3186 movement) on the other hand has much more potential and has already seen its prices go up 🤷♂️😊
Wind It On The move - how is availability of brand new no date sub compared to exp2 your side of the world
For both you would be put on a “wish” list ..I got my sub in Dubai after being on a waitlist for just under 2 months
Wind It On The Move what do you think has better value retention exp 2 42mm bs sub no date both bought at list from an ad
manoj d sub no date hands down 🤷♂️
U didn't evaluate the most important point. What is the accuracy.
The black enamel paint has been butchered as per the video @ 5:28. Looks like a wire brush has been used.
16570 polar Explorer 2 is the very best.
Non black
Mind me asking what your wrist size is please?
6.9in

Wobbly GMT is hardly a ‘problem’. Really guys!
It’s just letting people know..what to expect 🙂
Wind It On The Move Fair enough, it might be worth pointing out the weaker jump hour click spring issue that caused some (early?) 3186 models, including the GMT Masters, to have a date change failure. Enjoying the videos btw buddy. 👌🏽
F Sohail interesting..I had two 3186 but never had the issue..will be sure to check if and when I buy again..thank you ☺️
