Rolex Explorer II 16550 Cream rail dial.
Impressive, subtle, delicious. Best, Nicolas ...

That really is a stunning looking Rolex Explorer II 16550 Cream Rail Dial.
I have always liked these Rolex Explorer II's in any dial colour but this cream dial makes it an even more special watch as it is just so beautiful. Marc
The cream dial is a killer.
This is not an aging thing but a series that happen to have the cream color? It seems like it was the early production that had a pigment / paint defect. What are your thoughts.
