Explorer 6610 Red Depth.
One of the hottest, if not THE hottest Explorer, in my book.
Red writing, long minute and hour hands, lollipop second hand, gilt dial, indeed, this is what I needed to celebrate the 40 000 th picture taken with my Leica D Lux 4.
Serial number 113 xxx from I 1956.
For the comparison, side by side with mine, which is from I 1957.
Enjoy!
Best,
Nicolas.

Hey, Gracias Amigo!
I am so sorry your love story with the Explo turned wrong. But I am pretty sure you will find yours, someday. It took me a long time before finding mine, and the good part of the story is that I didn't find it by myself, but Baron did it for me! So yes, t...
Hello Nicolas! Thank you for your answer! ...
... yes, my previous romance story with the 6610 turned in a big fracass and deception, but you know... I got special contact with Cosmos!... ... And a replacement came a few days ago. No time to take pictures and make the presentation here yet. No red wr...
