Rolex Explorer II
Almost certainly something you’ve never seen before and might never see again, a modern Rolex with patina. While sought after on the vintage market, patination is nearly unheard of in modern catalogues, especially from Rolex. And yet, this reference 216570, delivers exactly that. Years of regular wear and exposure to the sun (on a golf course, actually) have taken the orange color from the “EXPLORER” text and replaced it with a light yellow. A very subtle change, but unmistakable. Not to mention, so tasteful.
In the world of Rolex, the devil is in the details, and this Explorer II has plenty of devil.
And of course, it comes complete with a certificate of authenticity and appraisal and is shipped carefully and fully insured via UPS expedited service.
