This Rolex Explorer is in overall great vintage condition consistent with its age. The case is in good condition with normal signs of wear. The Mark II dial is in great condition with light patina; it has some slight wear on the edge near seven o'clock (this can be hard to notice under the crystal). The lume on the dial has aged to a lovely and even pale yellow color. The six o'clock plot shows signs of slight degradation. The hands have developed patina and the lume in the hands has aged to a matching pale yellow color. The folded Oyster link bracelet is in overall very good condition with normal signs of wear; it has a bit of stretch between the links which is common for this type of bracelet.

I have been searching for this model with the Jubilee bracelet for a long time. Bob's had the right watch at the right price. Purchased online. No issues and received quickly.
