Introducing the white dial of the Explorer II "Ref.16570"!
Manufactured around 1991, X-serial! The luminous material is all tritium!!

This is a popular semi-vintage model characterized by all-tritium luminous material and a single buckle,
The item introduced this time is appealing for its very strong transparency, a grayish dial, and a beautiful lemon-yellow patina,
It is a good piece with all accessories included. 

This is a comparison shot with an R-serial "Pumpkin" (right).
Can you see how different the dial textures are?

It's hard to tell from the photos, but the item introduced this time clearly has a transparent dial,
It has a grayish color reminiscent of porcelain. 

This is a comparison shot with an S-serial (right) which also has an attractive lemon-yellow patina.

The dial textures are similar, both are glossy and ceramic-like, but
The dial introduced this time had a clearly stronger gray color. 

This dial has a strong aura, so I definitely want you to see it in person!!

The dial condition is excellent,
It is kept in a beautiful state even under magnification.

The luminous material on the hands is also in excellent condition!
Such beautiful tritium hands are rare! 

It has a good face.
The beautiful lemon-yellow patina is also a highlight!!

There are some scratches and scuffs from use,
But it is a piece with very good overall condition. 

As you can see, the mid-case is thick and solid!!

The edge lines are also sharp, making for a very impressive case!!

The bezel area also looks good, without any looseness~!! 

The buckle clasp code is "R5"
The consistency is maintained.

The hard bracelet with its attractive single buckle is also in good condition,
It is in excellent condition with almost no sagging! 

Accessories include box, warranty card, serial tag, EX booklet (93), Oyster booklet (92),
And calendar (93-94) are all included!! 

Wrist shot!!
The transparent gray dial and lemon-yellow patina make this a super cool piece!!
Models right in the middle of the semi-vintage category like this are exciting for the future!
 

Semi-vintage representative model "Ref.16570/X5 series"
This is a beautiful piece with a gray-toned, porcelain-like dial!
The overall condition of the dial, luminous material, bezel, case, and bracelet is excellent,
And good pieces like this with all accessories are rare!
