The Explorer has long stood as the ultimate “one-watch collection” for many enthusiasts. Its timeless design and go-anywhere appeal make it just as at home in everyday settings as it is on far-flung adventures. The reference 1016 holds a particularly legendary status, produced for nearly three decades. With its understated 36mm case, no-date dial, and crisp black face, whether gilt or matte, it remains the definitive vintage Rolex sports model. Subtly iconic, the Explorer is a watch for those who value character over flash.
his particular example comes from the final part of its production run in 1988 and features a charming, richly patinated Mk3 dial with gently discolored indices. The watch itself is a fascinating piece, boasting a sharp, substantial case and its original 78360 Oyster bracelet stamped L11. Recently serviced by our watchmaker, it is ready to be enjoyed by a discerning collector for many years to come.
We believe this is the ultimate sporty one-watch-collection watch, or timeless addition to a stylish collection —get in touch to make it yours.
