Rolex Explorer I
Rolex Explorer I is always the most popular and attractive edition in Rolex, black dial with 3, 6, 9 Arab numbers lend elegance and charm Dynamics Explorer. Strongly influenced by celebrities, movie stars and the media report major interest even more expensive makes Explorer I become the darling of fashion.
addition Crazy Love movie star loves, Explorer I, is actually a rather attractive clock itself, apart from the excellent technology used to slide behind its full meaning of sport and elegance, Explorer I not only interesting historical traditional stories, but also with details labyrinthine Like many other sports, watches Rolex remember (I still remember stories of Submariner, Cosmograph Daytona and Explorer II?). Although I have no current phone number. 114 270 14 720 or earlier Explorer have been very different from IE with amazing stories at the time, the typical 3-6-9 markers and original have been replaced with steel markers, and design , movement, and levels have changed everything, its always the same aspect. design lovers ordinary watch, Explorer I was launched by Rolex especially for the commemoration of the expedition Everest. This clock was made with the British team at the Explorers of Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay 29th etc., climbing to meet in May 1953, an important task of the population. This story is truly magical and fascinating, but it still has some way real. First, Rolex Himalayan expedition had been treated since 1933, and later expeditions to Everest, Rolex has always been official supporters, while Rolex Explorer supports the entire team with his wristwatch . However, Rolex was not only the fan, it is said that when Edmund Hillary reached the summit of Mount Everest, there is a clock-Smith was the British fans. But what is Tenzing Norgay, in fact, wore Explorer. On July 19, 1988 was the clock at Sotheby’s auction in London, and currently stored in the Rolex Museum in Geneva. What if Explorer is the first clock at the top of Mount Everest made, I fear that no answer can be found, such as Hillary and Norgay not feel like talking, the first ascent of the summit, and insisted that reached by the two .
Secondly, taking into account the observation of the explorer by Tenzing Norgay are climbing Everest, he has, in fact, the typical black dial 3-6-9 and markers of the light night, although the hands are not skeletons (Mercedes), but we know that light at night of pure right, the round spots on the night light center seconds hand al little bigger than the editions of today ‘ hui. What should concern is the “accuracy” brand, but not “Explorer” on the face of this explorer. In addition, after the record Sotheby, the opposite of this style bubble back. According to these characters we can deduce that it is Ref. 6350th At that time, used to carve Rolex, production date back. The date for production Ref. 6350 by Tenzing Norgay is borne IV 53, which means that in April 1953. So you can see who has mounted against Hillary and Norgay on the summit of Everest unnamed Rolex Ref 6350 as an explorer. Although Rolex has been the hallmark of the explorer registered in Geneva January 26, 1953, Explorer has acquired its name after Hillary and Norgay climbed Mount Everest, which is, “Explorer” has begun to be added to the Ref. 6350 mounted on the success in 1953. How do I update a classic style clock Explorer always been done by Rolex after a certain period of Scrabble.
Anyway, Ref 6350 is indeed designed for explorers of Rolex. Ref 6350 Explorer is easy to read dial design and case is specially reinforced and used lubricants based on the need to make this clock can operate between -20 ° C to +40 ° C and its accuracy is not affected by the change emplastic concerned. So what that is called before or after Hillary and Norgay climbed Everest, many researchers in Ref. 6350, when the stopwatch is necessary. The striking face of the Explorer I is not innovative, got his big triangle marker at 12 o’clock dials and roman numerals and certain widely used in editions 1930 and 1940 Rolex, and 3-6-9 Arabic numerals and a marker of long bar was used in the early cushion and oyster style. However, these elements have appeared before it was re-combined in a unique way to create a fresh image and clear for Explorer.
According to research on the early explorers, the author of “The Best of Time. Rolex Watches: An Unauthorized History was apparently “James M. Dowling Rolex unsure at the beginning of the market potential of Explorer, therefore, Rolex save face with the registered trademark” Explorer “or the name” Explorer ” on the other editions. King Air Explorer is one of the best known examples. The King Air Explorer Black Dial: 3-6-9 the Explorer is used by some Ref. Air King 5500, but “precision” is the brand on the dial, not superlative chronometer officially certified. Another example is Dress Explorer, Explorer is to-dial with steel needles and are used by some Oyster Perpetual, but with “Explorer” engraved on the dial, there Ref including 5700 (also known as Explorer, date) with the date 5504 and no date Ref. These researchers, who are also rare and precious today, most were made in the 1950s and 1960s, the oldest , Ref Year 6298 can be traced back to 1953. And do not stop their production to selling hot Rolex.
Explorer Ref 6350 was produced for about a year in 1953 and Ref. 6150 production was the same year. Most Explorer Ref 6350 was with a black dial with “chronometer certified by the state, and the dial engraved with a honeycomb structure special. The 6150 and 6350 Ref Ref A296 uses movement, but the case is more greater than 2 mm Ref. 6150, both with “precision.” Ref Order 6150, to produce in 1959 and replaced by Ref 6610th appearance, ref 6610 and 6150 are almost the same, but since 6610 used ref new movement Caliber 1310, so that is flatter than the back of the bubble back. Thus, these early explorers are all stainless steel, and each entry, and markers Rolex Logo minute while using the color gold. ; Ref. 6610, Explorer Ref 1016 replaced its production in 1963. Ref 1016 is the edition most famous of the longest production in all browsers, production lasted until the Ref 14 270 it replaced. Explorer Ref 1016 Ref 6610 looks like the light, and change their motion Caliber 1560, water consumption increased from 50 to 100 m. During the long production period of 26 years, Exploring Ref 1016, changed a little. The first generation of Ref 1016 was amended in 1975, has changed the use of the improved caliber 1570 with caliber 1560 by Hack, and the Oyster Band last solid stainless steel.
In 1989, Ref 14270, most are amateurs of watches from familiar surprise the market. have been outside the names of the other and hands Explorer Benz, interior decoration and the beauty of the 14,270 Ref Ref completely different from 1016: the caliber 3000 movement with a higher frequency, sapphire crystal glass, I still do so to change the dial a lot, the original text printed Night Light Marker Marker, including the clock, triangular marker at 12 clock and 3 -6 to 9 characters Arab Night Light everything has changed in the design of the circle K of steel coating over night tritium light. Such a change can make the style of the 14,270 have a sense of elegance and modern, but the true sport and style Explorer Ref. 1016 fans forget the hardest hits, and since the number was less and less of it, hence the price Ref 1016 in recent years has greatly increased. The price is nearly double the 14,270 brand new.
Explorer I changed a bit again in 2001: 14,270,114,270 replaced, modified to use independent Caliber 3130th of ancient Ref Explorer 6350, 1016, the older generation 14 270 114,270 or explorer, Rolex Explorer I was always a very simple clock with a simple appearance and functions of housing Stainless steel and bracelet, automatic movement, black dial with 3, 6, 9, it is truly remarkable, but perhaps it’s just that “Simply Better” Explorer seems to be more interesting as time passes quickly. What magic is that I loved not only by men watch enthusiasts Explorer, and women are increasingly attracted consumers by its modern and fun. can not understand most watch enthusiasts, low complexity but high-priced, and purchased by the consumer hot Explorer I, but why would you need a reason to love for a clock?
his exquisite style, an elegant character and rich history are the best reasons.
After five years, the production of
