A true legend is born, Rolex hits hard with this historical model.
A drawing and a perfect aesthetic.
It benefits from the DNA of the records of all records, it follows the expedition in the snow, the cold and the wind without ever fooling and without ever disappointing its owner.
The proposed model is 1964 under the reference 1016, one of the most remarkable. A very popular reference: the 1016 is the most desired Explorer I.
