It's an ultimate Datejust made of 18K yellow gold, featuring a perfectly preserved mirror dial and its original rivet bracelet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe striking mirror dial retains its pristine luster from that era, and the luminous material is perfectly intact without any deterioration.

With this bezel, the perfectly lustrous mirror dial, the completely intact luminous material, and the very early hands, it's no exaggeration to say that all possible specifications for a Ref. 1601 Datejust are fulfilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd most impressively, the rivet bracelet, like the watch head, is also made of 18K yellow gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the time, other bracelets manufactured for Rolex dress watches included the Jubilee bracelet and the President bracelet. Among them, this rivet bracelet is particularly popular for its excellent aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, because the rivet bracelet was not popular at the time of its release, there is an overwhelmingly small number of them, and some collectors are specifically searching for this bracelet alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, even among rivet bracelets, there are individual differences in the end links, so it's impossible to tell if the watch head and bracelet will match without actually trying them together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's very rare not only to find a rivet bracelet itself but also to find one that perfectly matches the watch head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rivet bracelet, with its side-crimping design, offers an exceptional aesthetic. While rivet bracelets also exist for sports models, they cannot be used for dress models due to differences in end link shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen collecting vintage Rolex, it's common to search for a piece that satisfies one's preferences amidst various trade-offs in specifications and condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, regarding this particular piece we've introduced, there isn't a single aspect that makes you wish it were better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn particular, the combination of the dial's condition and the rivet bracelet is almost unheard of, and there are no compromises in any of the other specifications either.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the Daytona is the king of sports watches, then this can be said to be the king of dress watches.

It is a tool watch equipped with a rotating bezel and a 24-hour hand, allowing the display of time in two time zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt a time when air travel was not yet common, this watch was born for international pilots at the request of America's flag carrier, which boasted an extensive route network, primarily for international flights. Although a tool watch, it established a sense of status from the beginning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, while the current GMT-Master II inherits this status, the appeal of the Ref. 1675 lies above all in its high degree of customization. Naturally, like other sports models, the wide variety of dial variations is attractive, but its impression changes dramatically by simply replacing the bracelet or bezel insert, so you never get tired of it even after owning it for a while.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong the many Rolex models, it is a reference that stimulates a playful spirit, earning it the nickname \"adult's model kit.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(Top) The \"SWISS – T \u0026lt; 25\" inscription at 6 o'clock, a characteristic of the Mk6.

While originally intended for matte dials, some people pair it with mirror dials. This flexibility is a unique charm of the GMT-Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis time, we are introducing the Mk6, which is among the last mirror dials of the Ref. 1675. This specification appeared just before the switch to matte dials around 1967, and among the mirror dials from Mk1 to Mk6, it is characterized by having the strongest luster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith mirror dials, the condition of the mirror itself is paramount. Since the dial of this particular piece is in particularly good condition, I believe you will enjoy using it, whether you are switching from a matte dial or acquiring your first Ref. 1675.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the condition of the bezel is also impeccable. Given that it's a model where replacing the bezel is an enjoyable activity, there are many instances where repeated replacements have led to mismatches between the bezel and the case's age, or where poor-condition bezels have been swapped for parts. However, this piece comes with an original bezel that perfectly matches the age and retains a rich, deep color from the start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(Top) As revived in current models, the GMT-Master is characterized by how well a Jubilee bracelet suits it.

Beyond replacing it with another good condition bezel of the same specification, there are many attractive bezels that dramatically change the impression with a simple swap, such as the purplish \"fuchsia,\" the strong blue \"blueberry,\" or even the original all-black bezel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, beyond genuine bezels, there are also very elaborately crafted aftermarket bezels, and it's no secret that many collectors own these bezels.

These models retained the iconic 3, 6, and 9 hour markers on the dial, but by repurposing components from the Air-King, they featured a slightly smaller 34mm case diameter compared to the original Explorer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong these special models, we are introducing the Ref. 5500 Boys Explorer, which was manufactured for the UK market. This reference is gaining popularity again, but due to its originally irregular specifications and limited distribution to specific regions, there are many malicious fakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow, four Ref. 5500 models have arrived simultaneously, including a full set with original guarantee, one with a matte dial, and three with mirror dials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat's interesting about vintage watches is that specifications once undoubtedly deemed fake can, with further research, turn out to be authentic. These dials, not to mention their originality, are in remarkably good condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, the matte dial. Until recently, it was commonly believed that matte dials did not exist for the Boys Explorer. However, in recent years, the discovery of examples with guarantees and detailed analysis of their luminous material, confirming it as original Rolex from that period, has led to their recognition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this sense, the matte dial Boys Explorer can be said to be a discovery that has only recently emerged among vintage Rolex watches. It is now known that Boys Explorers were produced for about 10 years, until around 1968 or 1969, and matte dials were produced only during the last roughly one and a half years of that period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn particular, the matte dial we are introducing this time is an extremely rare example with its original guarantee and outer box. While the originality can certainly be determined through detailed analysis of the luminous material, having a guarantee undoubtedly makes wearing the watch a more pleasant experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe underline on the dial indicates that tritium was used for the luminous material. Since the dials from the radium era were used as is, only the underline and the \"T \u0026lt; 25\" inscription were added later, resulting in a difference in paint color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo of the mirror dials are special examples with an underline at the 6 o'clock position, seen only immediately after the transition from radium to tritium luminous paint. This detail, observed only from 1963 to 1965, is extremely rare, and many collectors seek it out, not just for the Boys Explorer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of these, in particular, is a special full set and one-owner piece that a Hong Kong dealer sourced for AFTER.

for Canadian Market, Ref. 6298","description":"\u003cp\u003eToday, ROLEX has transcended the boundaries of a mere timepiece and has become, so to speak, a symbol of excellence itself. However, this image was not necessarily present from the brand's inception. As Pierre-Yves Donzé, author of 'The making of a status symbol: A business history of Rolex' on ROLEX's history, points out, it is said that the adoption of American-style marketing techniques in the 1960s was the catalyst for the brand image that continues to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 1960, while ROLEX was acquiring the ability to produce high-quality watches, its branding was still in its infancy. From this era comes the watch we are introducing today: the Ref. 6298 Canadian Explorer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Canadian Explorer was developed in various variations for the North American market. One of its characteristics is the dressy details not seen in regular Explorer models, such as the white dial, alpha hands, and blued seconds hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Explorer, born in 1953 and reportedly used in the world's first ascent of Mount Everest, had a truly chaotic dawn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was from Ref. 6350, released in the same year as the world's first Everest ascent, that all dials of the same model began to feature the word \"Explorer\" as they do today. There were several so-called pre-Explorer models that did not necessarily have the word \"Explorer\" on their dials, such as its predecessor Ref. 6150 and the Ref. 6298 we are discussing today. It was thought that one of these was actually worn during the world's first Everest ascent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, in recent years, based on photographs taken by a photographer who accompanied the Everest expedition at the time, it was identified that the watch actually worn was a Bubbleback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs this episode shows, before ROLEX had the sophisticated marketing strategies it employs today, it was, in a sense, haphazard. Rather than releasing products with a consistent image, it seems to have tried many different approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe engraving by the original owner on the case back confirms that this watch was indeed sold and owned in Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaving gained the fact that its products were used in the world's first ascent of Mount Everest and the \"Explorer\" trademark, ROLEX developed marketing models based on these for specific regions. The most well-known are the boy-size Explorer for the UK and the Canadian Explorer for North America, including this Ref. 6298.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe latter, in particular, is known for its rich variations and a refined dial that is uncharacteristic of the Explorer. This particular model features a very rare dial with a minute track placed inside the indexes and a short seconds hand that matches it, which is particularly eye-catching. Of course, the hands and crown are also original, and its relatively clean condition adds to the unique sense of satisfaction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut above all, the greatest charm is undoubtedly the \"Explorer\" text on the dial. What was merely the word \"Explorer\" put there for marketing purposes, after several decades and the accumulated image of 3, 6, and 9 associated with it, now once again evokes a powerful contrast and a sense of historical depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a timepiece filled with the charm of vintage Rolex.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AFTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48246968844526,"sku":"EXPLORER-FOR-CANADIAN-MARKET-REF-6298","price":99999999.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/0319\/2046\/files\/L1004173.jpg?v=1783142215"},{"product_id":"boys-explorer-with-paper","title":"少年探偵団と紙","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a 34mm \"Boy's Explorer\" made for the UK market, utilizing the case of a Ref. 5500 Air-King.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model features a very popular dial design, and as such, malicious redialed versions are circulating, making careful attention necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular piece is a matte dial from 1968, the last year of production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMirror dials were produced until 1967, and as the matte dial production period was extremely short, matte dials are quite rare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis watch comes with its original guarantee issued in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tritium has aged to a pumpkin color, giving it a wonderful character.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AFTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48246968910062,"sku":"BOYS-EXPLORER-WITH-PAPER","price":99999999.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/0319\/2046\/files\/L1004265-2-2048x1365.jpg?v=1783142217"},{"product_id":"black-nipple-ref-16753","title":"Black Nipple Ref.16753","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe GMT Master with what is called the \"barnacle\" index is the \"barnacle\" type GMT Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured from around 1980 to around 1988, only the early models had the barnacle-shaped index, making them highly popular.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven with a loupe, there is no noticeable damage to the dial, and the case is in good condition, virtually unpolished with no signs of having been buffed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is fitted with a hard type, three-link Oyster bracelet, which creates a different impression from the Jubilee bracelet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AFTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48246969237742,"sku":"BLACK-NIPPLE-REF-16753","price":99999999.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/0319\/2046\/files\/L1004275-2-2048x1365.jpg?v=1783142223"},{"product_id":"18k-gilt-oyster-perpetual-date","title":"18K Gilt Oyster Perpetual Date","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a very rare solid gold Oyster Perpetual Date, and it even comes with an 18K bracelet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat alone makes it special, but this is an early model Oyster Perpetual Date with perfect dial condition, wedge-shaped indices, and dolphin hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has a slight brown discoloration, making it a piece to look forward to in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA rare solid gold example with its original bracelet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've been looking for one, please inquire.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AFTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48246969204974,"sku":"18K-GILT-OYSTER-PERPETUAL-DATE","price":99999999.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/0319\/2046\/files\/L1004239-2-2048x1363.jpg?v=1783142223"},{"product_id":"full-set-wide-boy","title":"Full Set Wide Boy","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Datejust features a gray dial, which is considered rare among Datejust models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gray dial is characterized by its changing appearance depending on the viewing angle.
