Hello!
Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we have a Vintage Explorer/Ref.1016 Tropical Mirror!!
Rolex Explorer Tropical Mirror
Ref.1016 Serial.11 (manufactured around 1965)
Accessories: Main unit only
Cal.1560 FF58/7206 Clasp code 66.4 Back cover 65.1
SOLD OUT!!
What we are introducing this time is a mirror dial that was available on models manufactured up until around 1967.
The mirror dial has a beautiful mirror-like shine that is very appealing.
This is a rare dial that is extremely rare even among vintage models.
I have the impression that the number of mirror dials in good condition has decreased dramatically recently.
The item we have in stock this time is in excellent dial condition and highly recommended!
This mirror dial has a tropical mirror color that changes to a striking brown.
The 1016 mirror dial itself is not widely available,
It's rare to come across a mirror dial with such a tropical feel.
This is a comparison photo with the Ref. 1016 jet black mirror (right) on display in our store.
What do you think?
There is a clear difference in color compared to the jet black dial on the right.
Do you understand?
This exquisite gradation change is just too much.
This wonderful aging is a true art.
The dial condition is very good.
The mirror still has a nice shine and gives off a golden glow.
Ahh...cool.
The luminous index is also in good condition!!
It is in excellent condition with no visible luminous defects.
The luminous material is all tritium.
The hands have aged nicely!
The balance between the luminous hands and index luminous is just right!
The condition is age-appropriate with some scratches,
The case and bracelet are in good, solid condition.
As you can see, the middle case does not have an excessive finish.
A rivet bracelet is an essential feature for a watch of this age!!
The buckle is engraved with the 4th period of 66.
The rivet bracelet has a very natural twist,
It comes with an impressive bracelet!
Wrist shot!!
A gorgeous tropical mirror that shines gold!!
This is truly a vintage piece!
Vintage Explorer "Ref.1016/65"
The mirror dial maintains excellent dial condition.
Tropical mirrors that have aged beautifully and exquisitely like this are definitely rare!!
If you come across a rare specimen with such perfect consistency, it's your chance!
If you are looking for a super cool 1016 mirror dial,
Please consider this.
