Rolex Explorer 2 ref 1655 Box and service Papers SOLD

This Rolex Explorer 1655 or “Steve McQueen” as it became known dates to 1972 and is rapidly becoming one of the most highly sort after models around due in part because compared to many other sports watches it was produced in very small numbers and its distinctive looks make a statement in any setting, Originally designed as the perfect watch for assisting cave divers, its fair to say that the majority of today's fans may not be taking it to that extreme environment but its ruggedness and reliability have found fans in all walks of live.

The 40 mm stainless steel case shows little sign of polishing and the Rolex cal 1570 automatic movement functions exactly as it should. The original Rolex bracelet is in equally great condition.

The dial is  in near perfect condition and the lume is a wonderful honey colour

This great piece comes complete with Rolex box and several Rolex service papers as shown
