Rolex Explorer ref. #114270 C-2001
A wonderful example of the last of the truly classic sports watches from Rolex. This 2001 Explorer was the last of the breed before Rolex blew up the design. A true classic with roots dating back to the 1950’s.
The Rolex Explorer is the simplest of the Rolex line of Chronometer Certified sport watches. With no date window or other complications, it is just a fine, clean-looking watch in a sturdy 36mm stainless steel Oyster case. The watch comes on the SEL (solid end link) Oyster Fliplock Bracelet with end links machined from a solid piece of stainless steel. The clasp is the newer style small double fliplock.
This dial and hands are perfect. In 2001 Rolex was using Super Luminova so both still glow brightly in the dark.
The watch comes fully serviced, keeping very good time. During service, we completely disassembled both the case and bracelet and ultrasonically cleaned them. The watch case itself was very lightly refinished to maintain as much as its original look as possible. The bracelet was also lightly refinished, mainly at the clasp. Both came out looking great. Currently the bracelet will fit up to a 7 1/4” wrist. We have additional links available if needed
A true classic in great, pre-owned condition!
