Midweek - Some Explorer days ahead.. The case of two marvels..
Friends, several of you know, that Rolex lately has become a sort of "second leg" for my humble collecting efforts, which still are quite focused on JLC, with emphasis on the Memovox series.. Having said so, and when browsing through some of my watch boxe...
these vintage Explorers...really have something
Great to share with us....really nice to see them
No I don't like them a bit.....
I like them a whole lot! I have a 1016 Explorer, not as old as yours but still nice. I've never had an Explorer 2 but your lovely example makes me wish I had. I enjoyed seeing the pictures. Thank you. Regards Kev
Some truly impressive results for your humble efforts ;)
As usually you are very understated but the pieces are real gems, both of them! The Explorer I is the subtler choice but both are simply charming and in immaculate shape Looking forward to seeing what other humble pieces you are still hiding
Thx dear K, for the kind words !.. & Yes, it was with quite some luck to find them in this condition.. Happy to show them at one of the next occasions !..
Finally, along with the habits of our Nordic friend Blomman, having rather deep sleeves, I\'ll try to reserve one or another little surprise.. Best, hs
These vintage Explorer do really have something.
Charm, presence. Great duo, my friend. Best, Nicolas
Thx for your kind looking, my friend !.. & AIFK it was a similar shot, you have posted a while ago, which stimulated me !.. :))
Yes, these Explos render an intense appeal ! Besr, hs
A great Rolex Duo.
The Rolex 6610 is a rare bird. It's sister the Rolex 1016 was rumored to have been produced 20 fold over the 6610. Easy to agree s the 6610 run was only a few years until the 1016 replaced it. Very nice Enjoy
Thx so much for your nice words & the interesting backgd info !.. Guess, I indeed have been lucky to find such a nice 6610.
- Really a good & appreciated horse in my stable, thanks again ! Best, hs
Wow...
Gr8 patina & character both vintage Rolex exhibit. I love the explorer 1 - heartbreaker... Best, mahesh.,
Thx for your kind looking & the nice words !.. & Yes, it's amazing..
.. the Explo 6610 is still a real beauty after 60 years. Cheers & Best, hs
i hope from Basel - an Exp II...
a tribute to 1971 @ 40 mm ;-) not too much to ask for. Best, mahesh.,
