Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will be introducing a recommended wristwatch!

Today we have a late-model vintage Explorer.

ROLEX Explorer All Tritium
Ref.1016 Serial.R8 (Manufactured around 1988)
Cal.1570 78360/FF580 Clasp Code M5
Accessories: International Service Warranty (Stamped January 2019)
SOLD OUT!!

The 3rd generation Explorer "Ref.1016" was manufactured from around 1959 to around 1989.

The model we are introducing today is an R series, which is a late-model individual of the 1016.

The R series, produced near the end of its production, is a popular item that sells quickly in our store every time!

The dial is an MK5, characterized by its sharp logo.

It's a dial appropriate for its age.

The matte black dial is in very good condition!

Late-model pieces like this are relatively easier to find in good condition, so we recommend them!

The luminous material is all tritium.

The hands and indexes have uniformly aged to a cream color.

The luminous material on the hands is in clean condition with no cracks visible even under a loupe.

The dial condition is appealing, but

the case and bracelet are also in good condition!

There are some signs of use,

but the case is a good example without excessive polishing!

The lugs are thick, a sharp example with crisp edges.

The buckle clasp code is "M5".

The age-matching bracelet is in good condition with only slight stretch!

Wrist shot!!
The exquisite size and timeless, excellent design are attractive!
It always looks cool!!

Popular vintage Explorer "Ref.1016/R8 Series"
This is a highly recommended piece with excellent overall condition in its dial, lume, and case!
Many people are looking for the late-model R series, and it's a popular model that sells relatively quickly, so
don't miss out if you're looking for one! It's also recommended as an introductory vintage model!!
To customers looking for a good Ref.1016, please consider it.
