Explorer II Rail Dial 16550 1986 Box and Papers

9668 Explorer II Rail Dial 16550 1986 Box and Papers A transitional Explorer II ref. 16550 with a creamy dial patina. \n\nThe ref. 16550 was the successor to the much more retro 1655, replacing it in the mid-80s. It was the first of the 5-digit Explorer II references, which all featured the round markers and "Mercedes" hands which are now synonymous with the model. The 16550 was also the first time the Explorer II was offered with a white dial - most examples from this era have aged to a warm creamy tone.\n\nThis Rolex is in good condition for its age, with some wear to the bezel from age and use. The bracelet appears to be a later version, which will be more practical and secure than the original style. It comes with the box, booklet, hang tags, service guarantee card and dated guarantee papers. Rolex Explorer II 16550 Automatic 40 Scratches, marks or small dings which can be felt. Signs of use.
