Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we have a rare early model 5-digit Explorer.

Rolex Explorer I Blackout All Tritium
Ref.14270 Serial.E8 (manufactured around 1991)
Cal.3000 78360/FF558B Clasp Code P4
Accessories: Box, warranty card (400: Hong Kong/1991 stamp)
SOLD OUT!!

"Ref. 14270" manufactured from E to P (around 1991 to 2000)
The latest arrival is the early model "Blackout" manufactured around 1991.

This is a rare model that was only available in very limited quantities in the early production runs of the all-tritium, single buckle "Ref. 14270".

"Blackout"

It has been confirmed in the early batches "E" and "X" of "Ref.14270".
The dial has black lines on the 3, 6, and 9 indexes instead of white.

Although it is a very rare model,
At Commit, we have already sold four bottles this year (laughs).

This year, strangely enough, there are regular shipments,
It wouldn't be surprising if this trend stopped at any time.
If you're looking for one, grab it while it's still available!

The crown logo and dial markings come in two types: silver letters and white letters.
This time we are introducing the silver letter dial.

The blacked-out silver letters change the atmosphere so much that it feels like a completely different item compared to the regular model.

In addition to the crown mark and logo,
All models, from the Minute Line to the T-SWISS-T<25, have silver letters.

Incidentally, the second hand on this watch has the popular dot tip!!

The Blackout model has a relatively high ratio of tip dots,
This second hand is definitely a nice feature!

The dial condition is very good,
It is in good condition even when viewed through a magnifying glass.

The luminous material is all tritium.
The luminous hands are in excellent condition with no cracks or other visible marks.

The condition is good, there are some scratches on the case and bracelet,
There are no noticeable scratches on the whole, and it is a beautiful individual with a very good impression.

The middle case is in good condition with no excessive finishing!

The edge lines are very clear and sharp!

As you can see, the hairline is in good condition!!

Buckle clasp code is "P4"
The age is perfect!

This crisp single bracelet is in rare condition with no signs of wear at all!!

Accessories include box, warranty card, serial tag, chronometer tag,
EX booklet (95/retrofit) Oyster booklet (90) Extra frame (full frame)
We have all the following items!

The warranty and serial tag included are very attractive!

The outer box comes with a 14270 reflector seal.

Wrist shot!!
Blackout with silver letters, a great piece from the early 90's!!
The market price is stable at a high level, and it is a rare model with hidden potential.

5-digit Explorer early model Ref.14270/E8 "Blackout"
The overall condition is excellent, the second hand has a dot at the tip,
Furthermore, the parts are all perfectly matched, making this
a highly recommended product!
