I love reading and joining in these Black or White threads
I vote white; I did own a black dial EXP II not long ago at the same time as owning the white dial but found the white dial grabbing my attention and wrist +75% of the time, I also agree with others that if you already own a black dial watch the white EXP II is the obvious and easy choice but if its going to be your only watch then its a a much harder decision.....for me it would still be the white dial |

It was an easy choice for me as I have a DJ with white face and wanted a change..........So black it was
If on the other hand I hadnt already got a white faced watch it may have been a harder choice

Voted white (because I own one) but I love the black one.
For me it s 50%/50%, black or white the EX2 is IMHO the best sports Rolex.

Both watches would be fun to own and wear but since I already have a GMT Pepsi with a black dial my vote goes to the Polar!!!

Like another post earlier, would be great to see the Exp 11 in a grey/silver dial. |

I voted the Polar, I reckon the Explorer II is all about the white dial.
I have been following the For Sale section, there are a lot much more Polar for sale than the Noir. It can gives you a clue on the popularity for this Rolex model . I really like my newly acquired Polar, very comfortable and versatile watch. I am tempted to add a Exp II Noir to accompany my Polar. Get the one that sings to you most, wouldn't be disappointed whichever colour dial you pick for the Exp II! Last edited by Ultraman; 14 November 2011 at 04:53 PM.. Reason: being long winded |

I won the black and love it but I'll probably buy a white one when I find the right watch at the right price

I voted for the white dail but that is only for the NEW EXPII. I would normally vote for the black dail but I don't like the floating hands.

I have both polar and noire and my love for the black is wilting.... albeit very slowly....
So i would say polar is the way to go |

I mentioned on a different thread, I went into AD to try both on a couple of weeks ago, with my mind made up for white...came away thinking black looked much better. This is one selection I would not make before trying both on, IMHO.
