"Blackout"
It has been confirmed in the early batches "E" and "X" of "Ref.14270".
A dial with black lines on the 3, 6, and 9 indexes instead of white.
The Blackout comes with two types of crown logo and dial notation: silver letters and white letters.
What we are introducing today is an exceptionally cool silver letter dial.
This is a comparison photo with the W number of Ref. 14270 (right).
Compared to the model on the right,
Can you see the difference in the index specifications and letter colors?
Silver Letters x Blackout
It is a Ref. 14270, but it feels like a completely different watch.
The atmosphere changes.
In addition to the crown mark and logo,
All models, from the Minute Line to the T-SWISS-T<25, have silver letters.
Important point!
The dial condition is very good,
It is in good condition even when viewed through a magnifying glass.
The luminous hands are also in excellent condition with no cracks to be found!
The luminous material is all tritium.
The cream-colored tritium luminous material creates a unique semi-vintage atmosphere.
I have the impression that there are relatively few Ref.14270s with burn marks,
The blacked-out dial is particularly striking.
The condition is good, there are scratches on the case and bracelet,
This is a good non-polished specimen.
*This product was overhauled at our affiliated workshop in February 2023.
As you can see, the middle case is
The case is in excellent condition with no sign of wear!
There are some scratches, but the rug legs are in perfect condition!
*There is a chip in the glass without the crown watermark.
Buckle clasp code is "S3"
The single bracelet is slightly wrinkled,
It's in solid good condition!
Accessories include box, warranty card, chronometer tag, EX booklet (93), Oyster booklet (93),
We have the calendar (94-95) and extra frames (full frames)!
The best part is that it comes with a warranty!!
The outer box comes with a reflector seal.
It is a French guarantee individual,
The booklet is also in French style, so it fits perfectly!
The extremely rare 5-digit Explorer early model "Blackout"
The blacked-out silver letters look really cool no matter how many times you look at them!!
This is a wonderful piece from the early 90's that is becoming more and more rare every year!
This is a one-owner item with beautiful burnt tritium and dial and case condition! It also comes with all the accessories, so it's highly recommended!
