Rolex Explorer 1016.
Another superb one spotted some weeks ago. These vintage Rolex have an incredible charm. Best, Nicolas ...
Wow, the 1016 is one of my ultra-grails!
Unfortunately I don't feel comfortable spending the current prices they command and I also still lack the deep knowledge that is necessary before buying such a watch. Nothing worse than spending a 5-digit sum on a frankenwatch. But maybe someday eventuall...
If you know how to assess all the little details that make or break a correct example. ;)
But there are enough ressources online to gather the necessary knowledge to do so, you are right.
Ah the patina!!!
Nico, can it get any better than the color and perfection of that dial? I don’t think so …
Yes, the canvas strap alone
Swings it for me. Also the simpler dial text. Did I mention the radium?
