Rolex 6610 Red Depth..... and Explorer roll-call generally

Nov 30, 2014,05:10 AM
 

I have certainly dedicated more than one post on this watch in the past. Here is a link to the more detailed article I did on the watch some time ago.


rolex.watchprosite.com


Today, I just wanted to use the post to send a big hello to the new 6610 on the forum....HS111. Along with Nicolas and myself, H has now joined the small (but growing) club of 6610 owners. So, my first roll-call is to H and Nicolas to post their 6610s. 

But I also want to see ALL Explorers in all their various guises...1016s, 16550s, 1655s, 6610s.... whatever and however they come....Explorer time.

Yep....

its my theory that vintage Rolex collectors accumulate Explorers without really realising it.

Hej HS! :)

<br> .. yes, I have "started low, going slow" in the<br> Rolex Vintage terroir, giving me pleasure; <br> although it still takes proper homework, like always.. <br><br> But I can tell you, that a GP probably is in my<br>... 

Thank you, dear friend Dexter! :)

.. It has taken me about 2 yrs to find " My Explorer" ( 6610), also thanks to kindness, and a friendly hint from here, and a special friend ( you know well ! ). This only happened few weeks ago, and I consider myself lucky and happy at the same time, to h...

Explorers use stealth....

.....before you know it, you will have 2 or 3. A little bit like Reversos actually.

Here we go... 1016 Chapter Ring, Gilt.

Indeed.. Now that you say it.. You've got a great memory !.. The variations & permutations

Yes, you're also right.. Together w my 1675/ gilt, they make a nice Vintage couple

.. also thank you for educating & sharpening my senses ! Best, my friend hs

Ahhh! Yes! Now I remember on which wrist I have seen this one...

... I was surprised to see a 1016 with the chapter ring, as I wrongly supposed that this was a feature of previous references only. I can understand his owner reluctance to sell! Such a beauty!! Un abrazo amigo! Abel

Yes, you met him. ;) [nt]

Didn't remember your 6610 came withs its papers, Amigo. Wow!

 
 By: amanico : November 30th, 2014-22:21
Excellent Duo of small Explos. And your 1655 is not bad, either! Best, Nicolas

Thank you Nicolas. Yes, it even came with the guarantee...

 
 By: Subexplorer : December 1st, 2014-03:48
... from the official Central Rolex service dept here! I suspect that during one of their services the original hands were exchanged, but anyway it is a very authentic set which came directly from its previous owner. Glad you like it! Un abrazo amigo Nico... 

A superb pair.....to be sure.....

 
 By: Baron - Mr Red : December 1st, 2014-01:59
......both full of character and must be a joy to wear! Best Joe

no 6610 yet...i failled to acquire a 6610 for a very "french" reason... i comfort myself with my 1016 ...  

French reason...

 
 By: Ares501 - Mr Green : December 1st, 2014-02:48
I would really love to know definition of it :) although I have something in mind :) Nice watch Sincerely

 By: psfparis : December 1st, 2014-02:53
santa comes once a year, tax collector comes more often ;-)

you French and the taxman.....

 
 By: Baron - Mr Red : December 1st, 2014-02:59
....i guess this is why the Swiss French always have that "sort of smug" look on their faces.

ROFL! [nt]

 
 By: amanico : December 1st, 2014-03:03

So I guessed right...

 
 By: Ares501 - Mr Green : December 1st, 2014-03:49
