Simple yet classic, understated yet instantly recognizable: Rolex Explorer 1. The ref 214270 seen here was Rolex stepping outside the box just a bit, going from 36MM up to 39MM. This ref came out in 2010, lasting 11 years. But what we have here is the MK2 dial that ran for only 5 of those years starting in 2016. With the MK2 Rolex extended the handset to even out the overall look, and most importantly went full lume on the numerals, which is a beautiful thing! This is a great example in a boxes and card AD set! REFERENCE: 214270 SERIAL: Scrambled 28R35XXX DATE: 2017 DIAL: Here coming in more of a matte black, again with the full lumed numerals, what more can be said about the 3-6-9 dial and Mercedes hand - so much to love! Appears mint, including the sapphire crystal. CASE: 39mm stainless case bringing more wrist presence while staying extremely comfortable (photographed on my 6.6 inch wrist.) Nice unpolished example, with some wear throughout, mostly seen on the bezel and case sides. Could be cleaned up but I always choose to leave original, disappears on the wrist AND what would Sir Edmund Hillary do?! MOVEMENT: Another upgrade brought to this ref is the automatic caliber 3132, with Rolex bringing in the blue Parachrom hairspring and upgraded shock absorption. Timegrapher numbers look great at 6 seconds per day with an amplitude of 290. BRACELET: Comes on its original Rolex oyster bracelet that can fit up to app 7.5 inches (including a spare link.) Light wear on the bracelet, mostly on the clasp, but all in very clean. ACCESSORIES: Boxes & card AD set - outer Rolex cardboard box, inner green Rolex box, date stamped AD card, 2 booklets, even the bezel protector - this is how ya wanna find ‘em!
