Description
The first generation of the new style Explorer II, the successor to the earlier orange hand four digit that brought the model into the modern era with the addition of a sapphire crystal and new movement which made the watch into a true GMT watch because of its independently settable GMT hand. The gloss black dial features beautiful tritium luminous plots which display a warm golden hue, as do the matching hands. It also features the rare square font first edition bezel, a design feature which makes this first edition model stand out amongst all the other references because of its boldness.
Condition
The watch is preserved in overall excellent condition commensurate with its age, with visible surface wear but no signs of major knocks or dents. The previously polished case still displays well defined contours and bezels with a thick overall profile.
Warranty
Our company provides a one-year warranty on the watch.
