Rolex Explorer1016 from 1969

On May 29, 1953, the Rolex Explorer 1016 made history on the wrist of Tenzing Norgay, a Nepali sherpa, accompanying Sir Edmund Hillary in the ascent of Everest.

This model, very pure with its 3,6,9 dial and its "Mercedes" type hands, is very legible, a very important feature for all these adventurers.

The model presented for sale works perfectly, has remained in its own juice and has a amazing patina of indexes and hands.

It has the 1520 caliber, rarer on the reference 1016 generally with the caliber 1560 or 1570.
