The first Explorer II "Ref. 1655" manufactured from 1971 to 1983
This is a very popular model that exudes the retro atmosphere that only a vintage model can offer.

The model we are introducing this time is a high-year model manufactured around 1981.

The dial is a period-appropriate "MK4 dial . "
The lettering is very similar to the MK5 dial,
What makes it stand out is that the letter "O" in "OYSTER" is oval-shaped!

The MK4 dial is surprisingly rare and hard to find.

Surprisingly, this is the first time we've featured it on this blog.

I personally feel that there are few MK4 dials in good condition,
The dial condition of this watch is excellent.
It is in good condition even when viewed through a magnifying glass.

The index luminous material is also in excellent condition with no signs of wear!

The MK4 dial now reads T SWISS<25 T.

The luminous material is all tritium.
The condition of the luminous hands
is also good.

The bezel is an MK3 that fits onto an MK4 dial.
This is a rare bezel with a very short production period.

Compared to the MK1 and MK2, the top of the number "2" is gentler!

The case and bracelet have scratches appropriate for their age,
There are no major scratches and the condition is good.

The middle case is in good condition!

The lug legs are thick and sturdy.

There is no excessive finishing!

The bracelet also matches the clasp code "F".

There is some wear, but the condition is good!

Wrist shot!!
This is a wonderful model with an irresistible retro feel!
The rare MK4 dial x MK3 bezel combination is sure to make you fall in love with it!

The first Explorer II "Ref.1655"
Its stunning design makes it one of the most popular vintage Rolex models!

The parts are consistent and highly recommended!!
