Description
Let me start by saying that the dial and hands on this vintage Explorer II reference 1655 are extremely vibrant, crisp and beautiful.
The Rolex Explorer II reference 1655 was the first Explorer II. It has a unique look in the history of Rolex watches, with its orange colored 24 hour second timezone hand, steel bezel with 24 hour scale and the hands and dial on the 1655 are unique to this model.
Original stainless steel case measures 38mm diameter by 14mm thick. The bezel has an engraved and brush finished 24 hour scale with black numbers. Screw down crown is operating perfectly. Plastic crystal. Serial number 6703XXX dates production to 1980. The case has full metal and fat lugs.
Once again, the dial and hands are original, in perfect condition, and BEAUTIFUL. Really and truly. As nicely as I think our pictures turn out, they do not do this watch justice. The hour markers and hands have light and pleasing patina, and the orange on the 24 hour hand is crisp.
Original movement is Rolex Caliber 1570 26 jewel automatic winding caliber, adjusted to five positions and temperature. This movement is a C.O.S.C. Certified Chronometer. Condition is clean and running.
Rolex Oyster heavy link bracelet with non- flip lock clasp.
This watch is in mint condition.
