1997 Rolex Explorer 14270 with Papers

Sold

“Tritinova”


Case: The recently polished case and bezel are excellent and show only very light wear.

Dial: The glossy black transitional dial is excellent showing no visible wear. The original factory hands are matching.

Bracelet: Excellent 12 link oyster bracelet with light stretch. The clasp is stamped with a 1998 date code.

Accessories: Rolex Papers.
The watch was just overhauled at LA watchworks.

Notes: This dial is from the era Rolex was transitioning from tritium to luminova. It's widely thought that instead of Rolex throwing out the already produced dials marked "T Swiss- T<25" they instead just filled them with the new Luminova luminous material and sent them out to ADs.
