COMING SOON!!

The third generation Explorer "Ref. 1016" manufactured from around 1959 to around 1990

During the long manufacturing period, various changes were made to the specifications.
Vintage Explorer.
This is a very popular vintage model that always sells quickly in our store.

The products we have in stock this time are mainly early matte dial/MK1 models that were produced from around 1967 to 1973.

The MK1 dial has a crown mark in a font that resembles a frog's leg.
The dial is called "Frogfoot."

It's a very cute crown mark that has the feel of a vintage model!

Incidentally, the 1655 MK2 dial (below) also has similar features to the Frogfoot.

I have the impression that many MK1 dials are in poor condition due to their age, but
The dial of this watch is in relatively good condition.

The tritium luminous material has a beautiful tinge, giving this watch a charm that is unique to vintage models.

The luminous material is all tritium.
The hands have a very natural aging.

This item has some scratches and scuffs due to use,
The case and bracelet are in good condition and highly recommended!!

The case is sturdy and not overly finished.

7836/The condition of the winding bracelet is also good.
It maintains a crisp and beautiful condition.

The buckle clasp is engraved with 4th period '70.

The bracelet is in good condition with only slight creasing!
It's rare to find a bracelet in such good condition!

You have a great look on your face!!
It's wonderful!

Wrist shot!!
This piece has a beautifully burnt tritium luminous finish that gives it an outstanding atmosphere!
It's the coolest model ever!

The popular vintage explorer "Ref.1016"
This is a recommended item with a good overall condition MK1 and beautiful tritium burnt finish!
This well-matched Ref. 1016 is becoming increasingly rare, so don't miss out!
Customers looking for the Ref.1016/Frogfoot dial,
Please consider this.
