The dial colors of "Ref.16550" are black, white, and ivory.
The latest arrival is a black dial that gives off a rugged and sophisticated impression.
The chronometer markings on this watch are even between the words "SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER" on the top and "OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED" on the bottom.
This dial is commonly known as a "center split."
The ivory dial center split is famous,
There is also a center split black dial!!
Furthermore, this particular watch has spider web-like cracks on the surface of the dial.
Depending on the angle of the light, it looks like a spider web, which is very appealing.
"The dial is called the Spider .
Strangely enough, the black center split dial looks like a spider.
This crunchy spider with its large cracks is also incredibly cool!!
I'd love for you to come and see it for yourself!!
The tritium burn is also quite strong.
The atmosphere is outstanding!!
It is quite difficult to find a 5-digit Explorer II with a black dial that has strong tanning marks.
And it's cool (lol)
There are cracks in the luminous needles,
The atmosphere has not been compromised in any way!!
The condition is good, there are small scratches on the case and bracelet,
The lug feet look good and the middle case is sturdy.
The single bracelet, which matches the era, also has slight creasing,
The condition is good!!
*Frames will be full frames.
Finally, a wrist shot!!
Center split crunchy spider dial!!
