1016 "Tropical"

This is the extremely popular 1016 Explorer I, where the condition of the dial and luminous markers is crucial due to its simple 3, 6, 9 dial.

This particular piece is a 1965 model with a mirror dial, the final iteration of the MK6 dial.

It has beautifully tropicalized while retaining its luster, giving it an artistic appearance.

The luminous markers are plump and intact, with no chips, and the bezel is sharp and thick, not worn down.

The case condition is also excellent, suggesting minimal, if any, polishing.

It is fitted with a 1965 7206 rivet bracelet, which perfectly matches the watch.

It's rare to find an Explorer I in such remarkable condition.

Please inquire soon.
