Explorer Rolex 1016

The Rolex Explorer 1016, honestly one of the coolest vintage pieces ever made, was introduced in 1963 and stayed in production for an impressive 26 years, which says a lot. Built to handle serious adventure, from Everest expeditions to daily city runs, it’s a legend with that perfect mix of toughness and understated charm. At Tropical Watch, we’re all about celebrating icons like the 1016 because, really, that’s what keeps the watch world interesting.
