Three solid choices. If I don't go in the direction of the one you were helping me out with, the DJ41 is the likely next candidate.

I feel the same way. No on-crystal cyclops on any of my watches.

I had a love affair for the Explorer...but Rolex took too damn long to come to their senses when it came to the 39mm Explorer and the short minute hand. By the time they addressed that, I was beyond caring.

No need to picture it:

Between the orange DAS canvas and a gray nato, those were my favorite combos to wear on the Polar Exp.

@ Art - as someone who could actually use a GMT function due to (seemingly never ending) travel, I'm surprising myself by saying 1, 3, 2.

Thanks guys. All 3 are awesome in their own right, just need to pick one. Size wise for me Exp2 is perfect, cyclops is a turn off. Dial wise Exp1 is perfect and the case is great, if it were 41mm I'd have to get it no question. So pluses and minuses with each one of them.

Joe, that picture is pretty much why I want that watch, lol

Badass strap!!!!! And the watch looks better on your wrist than in mine.

I also understand the allure of the Exp 1. I've been debating between a 5 digits Sub or the Exp 1. Really like both.

+1, can't do a cyclops. The Explorer would be my choice. I might also consider a Milgauss.

I got to meet Justin from Monta for drinks laT week and handle the Triumphs then. I was sold. Had liked them from the photos and quality seemed good but wasn’t 100% sure, seemed a little $, size worried me and was curious if the quality and looks were as good as in the pics.
After seeing them in the metal, i was sold. Loved it, the looks, the finish and details C the awesome bracelet... so ordered one Wednesday. Very glad it did, I love it.
