Today we have a semi-vintage popular model,
Introducing the Ref. 16570 with tritium luminous and single buckle!!

This is a watch with a dial that changes to an exquisite color.

Please take a look!!

Now let's take a look at the colors!

This is a comparison photo with the 16570/S model (right) in stock at our store.
The S-numbered model has a beautiful white dial,
When comparing them like this, you can see that the individual we are introducing this time (left) has a strong color.

Nevertheless, this individual,
It looks like a mysterious color that is different from ivory.

Here is a comparison with my beloved 116520/Ivory.

More off-white than ivory?
It looks like it has a pink tint to it as well.

Abe gave the somewhat unusual analogy of red rice and red bean broth.

As expected of Mr. Abe, he's funny (lol)

We all laughed,
I guess that's not entirely wrong.

In the end, Abe's expression was the one that fit best, and I'll keep it between you and me.

Did you get a sense of the color a little?
Either way, there's no doubt that this is a dial with a very nice color!

An important point! The dial condition is also excellent!
It is in good condition even when viewed through a magnifying glass.

The tritium luminous material has also changed slightly to cream,
It gives off a nice semi-vintage vibe!

The luminous material is all tritium.
The luminous hour hand has a magnifying glass level crack,
The condition is good.

The condition is overall there are scratches from use,
This is a high quality specimen that is non-polished.

As you can see the case middle is thick and in great condition!

The impressive and crisp rug legs are very appealing!!

The hairline is also in good condition!

Buckle clasp code is "P12" 

The bracelet is crisp and matches the era.
It's in great condition with almost no wrinkles!

Accessories include box, warranty card, Explorer booklet (93), Oyster booklet (92),
Comes complete with chronometer tag calendar (93-94).

Wrist shot!!
This is a rare dial with an exquisite color!

The popular semi-vintage model, Explorer II "Ref. 16570/N"
This is an outstanding specimen with an exquisite pink hue!
The overall condition is good and the parts are in good condition.
It's hard to find such a good quality unit with all the accessories included!
If you are looking for an early model of Ref.16570, please consider this one!
