Your right
It is not a bad thing. It really doesn't bother me the slightest. I think your right that it will not change for the foreseeable future. Not with Explorers in general.
But with early references such as the 6150 and 6350 (also perhaps the 6610) - it is only a matter of time before collectors discover their importance and charm.
My report will hopefully aid this process. The problem is that almost nothing has been written about them.
Its the usual problem. There is an overdose of information on Submariner. And very little on anything else.

6350 Explorer Honeycomb
After finding a wonderful 6350 Explorer Honeycomb last year but failing to act in time - I promised myself that I would make this my top priority in 2015. Thanks to a HK collector the 6350 arrived sooner than I expected. I think besides being one of the m...
Great catch, Edmond. These Early Explos are to die for.
Totally my kind of cup of tea... We should try to organize a photo session with some of your catches... I am thinking about this 6542 and this one! Best! Nicolas
Come to Zurich
My friend come to Zurich and we do this with pleasure. Thank you for your kind words. Indeed we have similar taste with early Rolex. Best Edmond
Congratulations Edmond

Thank you
Yes you had a heads up. Thank you for your kind comments. I hope I did my research well and it will be reflected in the report. The 6350 is a fascinating reference I have to admit. Many different variations exist (honeycomb, non honey, pencil hands, merce...
Explorer theme.....
......like you, I think the early Explorer reference is massively under-appreciated by the collecting community. The problem is, I am not sure I see it changing any time soon. Toi my mind, that is no bad thing.

Indeed....
....when i first researched the 6610 red, I found nothing. I had to compile my own database. Then i needed to cross-check it against the private databases that some collectors keep...I found very few (in fact just one other) who had kept a check on it. In...
Nice catch
Congratulation on a great choice. Looking forward to hearing and seeing more. Bill
Thank you Bill
Thank you Bill. I have had the luck to appreciate this reference last year. I fell in love with it and as usual did not act to buy it. This time things went quickly having learnt my lesson. Here another picture for your enjoyment as you shared so many wit...
