rolex series 7: the oyster perpetual explorer

The rolex explorer 114270 is the unique model in the oyster professional series.....

the case diameter is only 36 mm.......however it is also the model with a very rich history dating back to the 50s and its crowning achievement was sealed when Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay became the first men to reach the summit of Mount Everest on May 29, 1953.....


interesting advertisement for the explorer......only GBP49...!!!


modern day explorer advertisment

just bring you some pictures that i took of my 114270.......i guess with so much info available, there is really no need for me to write anything more about this very understated rolex oyster perpetual explorer....



the rich glossy black dial is .......beautiful......



i like the 3-6-9 dial especially.......of cos u can get a similar dial with the airking but the mercedes hands match the dial perfectly.....



the explorer comes with a oysterlock bracelet with SEL....the middle links are hollow though....not any fault and it is comfortable bracelet



just some additional pics for u to enjoy.....



and many ways to appreciate this classic rolex.....
