Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we have a well-equipped and highly recommended example of the popular Vintage Explorer.

Rolex Explorer MK1 All Tritium
Ref.1016 Serial.29 series (manufactured around 1972)
Cal.1570 Winding bracelet 7836/FF258 Clasp 71.3
Accessories: Main unit only
SOLD OUT!!

The third generation Explorer "Ref. 1016" manufactured from around 1959 to around 1990

During the long manufacturing period, various changes were made to the specifications.
It's a vintage Explorer.

This is a very popular vintage model that sells quickly in our store.
The item we have in stock this time is the early matte dial/MK1 manufactured around 1972.

The MK1 dial is called the "frog leg" or "frog foot" dial because the font on the crown mark resembles a frog's leg.

The dial features the adorable crown mark that is unique to vintage models!

This particular watch is a pumpkin model with strong burn marks on the hands and indexes.
This is a piece with a wonderful vintage feel!

The dial has some discoloration, but is generally in good condition.

As you can see, the index luminous material is in excellent condition!!

The stark contrast between the matte black dial and the burnt indexes is really cool.

The rust on the hands due to aging is also a nice touch. The condition of the luminous hands is good.

The case and bracelet are in good condition and highly recommended!!

The case has some scratches from use, but is relatively sturdy.

The rug feet are also not overly finished!

The buckle clasp engraving matches the 3rd period of 1971!!

There is little wrinkling,
It's a wrap bracelet that makes a great impression when you hold it in your hand!

A wraparound bracelet is an essential item for people of this age!!

The smooth dome windshield also has a nice feel to it!

Wrist shot!!
This is an incredibly cool piece with its pumpkin dial that exudes a great atmosphere!
What's appealing is that it's an early Frogfoot pumpkin!

The popular vintage explorer "Ref.1016/Pumpkin"
This is a rare MK1/Frogfoot with amazing tritium burn !
This beautifully appointed Ref. 1016 is becoming less and less available, so don't miss out!
Customers looking for the Ref.1016/Frogfoot dial with its outstanding atmosphere,
Please consider this.
