Vintage Rolex Explorer 1016 Watch Case

 

    I have observed in my country, the Philippines, that a Vintage Rolex Explorer 1016 is not a preferred collectible Rolex Sports watch. Some of the collectors I knew buy more of the Vintage GMT's and Submariners. But in the diverse international watch market, a Vintage Rolex Explorer has an equal footing with GMT's and Submariners. I am sharing with you a Vintage Rolex Explorer 1016 watch case produced in the first quarter of 1963.

     As expected of a used and a vintage watch, the case has some scratches and dents.

    Although there are some remnants of a corrosion on the lip of the inner side of the back case, the watch case still closes tightly.

    Again, I am not sharing the photo of the serial number for security reasons but it starts with 901. The model number can still be seen even with the naked eye.

Happy Viewing!
