I have a problem with the 216570. It mixes some elements of the 1655 ( freccione ) and the indices of the 16550 / 570.
This is the mismatch which disturbs me on the 216570. Now, from this collection of 4, I would well see myself adding a Black Rail 16550 and a 6350. I think I would be pretty well covered, with these 2. I am a big Ecplorer Fan.

Rolex Explorer Foursome.
An old picture of 4 Rolex Explorer I am lucky to own: 1655 / 6610 / 16550 and 16570. If I had to add one or two more, it would be a 6350 with a waffle dial, and, probably a 16550 Black Rail, which is quite problematic to find with a dial in good condition...
A Royal flush of Rolex Explorers
You have a very complete collection featuring the best of. Bravo on your taste. A+ Bill
Wonderful quartet :)
I believe to have seen one but they are all appealing in their different ways! Thanks for sharing
Well let's see...maybe just a few :-)

Wow fantastic!
But you know...normally it\'s the Three Muskateers...let me take one burden off your hands :P
superbe quartet !
i follow in your footsteps (from far...) 1016/1655 and 16550 is on the list..
Do you think they feel lonely only 4 of them?
Dear Nicolas, A wonderful shot and a fantastic gathering of Explorer marvels. 16550 black rail dial would certainly suit your 4 very well. 5 watches, 3 black and 2 white, in a row still makes a very symmetrical photo. ...Just in case you need some motivat...

Great picture.....
......it is one of the more interesting Rolex lines as it is very un-Rolex. The 1655 retains a lot of pleasure for me....
What a quartet !.. These are really 4 amazing aces.. It still needs some serious hunting for me.. But guess, I slowly need a break..
.. to be ready.. Although I happily share the 6610, this damned 1655 (with some nice patina, pls) is stubbornly remaining elusive for me, although they are not that rare ! So, if I could choose one, I\'d go for this 1655 first, & then for the lovely cream...
