I bought my 216570 (polar) in 2020, right before the new one came out. The added power reserve would be nice but I don’t really feel like I missed out. Both are great.

I’m not a Rolex fan but I’ll admit this is a simplistic beautiful watch. It looks classic, wearable for all occasions, almost dare I say it - Eternal.

@ASB88 Год назад

How did you miss that the older reference has a gloss dial and the new one has a matte dial. Massive difference and important one?

@Kupet31 Месяц назад

Are you sure about the matte dial? I know for sure about the matte hands.

@sac_fijian6314 Год назад

Most important bit is new version now has AR coating on entire bottom crystal unlike prev gen.....the only models to get this is new 41mm sub and exp2.

@lettuce1305 Год назад

I have compared it side by side, if you're buying the white dial aka polar, the AR coating underneath the crystal doesn't improve the legibility by much. The 216570 Polar is already a super legible watch under any lighting regardless of the lack of AR. If we're talking bout the black dial though, then yes the lack of AR in the 216570 is noticeable especially under certain lighting conditions, however the black dial 216570 has something very charming in my opinion, and that is the "floating/phantom" hands.

@torontowatches9709 Год назад

Love the video. I don’t think there’s a smoother transition the 216570 bracelet looks like jewelry better taper. The hands are a million times better on new polar and dial looks identical to naked eye. I own the 216570 and love that there’s no need for upgrade due to them being so minimal.

0:36 sec. Even you guys got the text wrong btw the new and the old.

@wuyeah-kx8es Год назад

@@callmeedaddy practically the same watch. Only Rolex consider it as “new model”.

@dwilliams3147 7 месяцев назад

My first Rolex was a polar 16570, and my second was a polar 226570. I wore the 16570 on a modern bracelet with glide lock and SEL. I chose the 16570 because its compact case was less obtrusive and its hands and indices were less ‘cartoonish.’ I upgraded after 6 months because its power reserve couldn’t withstand a weekend off my wrist, and resetting the watch was downright unpleasant compared to a modern 42mm (I also own a Zulu time 42.) The bigger movement just feels more robust. After owning the 226570 for 2 months, the 16570 now looks dainty on my 7.5 inch wrist. So power reserve and legibility won out on my wrist, but with a smaller wrist, I feel my preference would sway opposite.

@ginestraginestra9624 9 месяцев назад

The new wider bracelet fits the case more gracely than before, but this improvement does not make up for the loss of the floating hands. 216570 black dial remains my favourite.

@ripperx444 6 месяцев назад

Floating hands were the highlight of the 216570 and my pick... Thicker lugs allow more polishes/refinishes so 216570 wins again Movement in previous was made for the watch and the new one shared between the 40mm gmt master II. Prob even here. Not sure I like the larger brscelete either. Prob a toss up there though.

@JohnnyB21401 Год назад

Geez……really well done video great camera work and straight to the point and informative. Thanks

@jdavidson124 Год назад

Great video! In summary, the key differences are the new watch has a wider bracelet and a longer power reserve in the movement

Well, good filmography, but you missed out a good chunk of changes: The crown guards are altered slightly and the crown is different, AR coating on the underside of the whole crystal, Altered case geometry at the bezel line, and Altered bezel geometry.

@jh-il5sb 7 месяцев назад

it also seems like the numbers on the bezel are more subued on the new model

@lettuce1305 Год назад

Yes the 226570 is cool but I love the 216570, what's for sure is if you already have the 216570, there's no reason to sell and "upgrade" to the 226570.

@dipsetkid09 Месяц назад

Dang, as someone in the market for this watch now it’s a tough call, and extra $2k ish for double the power reserve, and the matte dial is sweet but seems like a lot of people like the 21 🤔

@fabfour289 Год назад

Some said that the new bezel size is 41.4mm and a bit shorter male endlink to endlink at 52.8mm..?

@ginestraginestra9624 9 месяцев назад

Great survey, thanks.

@dylvasey 2 месяца назад

The last Rolex that hasn't lost it's original intended usage over to a fashion statement with rare metals, diamonds and ridiculous colours.

@MattMorris481 Месяц назад

Now this is just me but for an extra $1250 retail I would rather have the GMT master II on jubilee.

@krysh195 Год назад

Great video - I am just not sure about the screw down crown and crown guards being the same?

@lettuce1305 Год назад

the crown guards on the 226570 is slightly slimmer, not very obvious but if you compare it side by side it's noticeable. The screw down crown, I don't really remember when I held it, probably not noticeable enough for me to spot the difference.
