Go for a the Big Crown
Dec 05, 2009,01:10 AM
Nothing is beat a big crown.
Find one with a gilt service dial, or go for the Tudor Big Crown ( the are more Rare than the 6538).
Ever time you poet it on your wrist, you have the feeling that you are 007;-)
(Your Explorer is beautiful, love the cooler)

A Brown Bomb from ...1964.
By: amanico : November 30th, 2009-07:57
For all the Chocolate, Brown, patined dials, here is a marvel I couldn't resist to share with you, a 1016 Explorer I from 1964. You will notice that the right part of the dial is lighter than the left part. Personally, I love a lot! The patined indexes ar...
Cool !

I think I know the watch, it was proposed to me early this year by a dealer in Marseille. I found it nice but expensive. Small world... Cheers Jeff

This Bomb is awesome, with this touch of nice brown color... Stunning!... but, between you and me, I prefer a no-crown sub... Seriously, I think it´s a watch that would feet really well in your awesome collection. Thanks for sharing, Hermano Best Emilio
True, Nicolas . . .

. . . you have to leave a few for the rest of the Rolex gang! My next vintage is Bill's sublime Longines chronometer . . . if he'll let me have it, of course ;-) . . .
LOL, but sadly true, Art.... :)

Wish you the best of luck for your Lon,gines Chronometer, my friend! Best from freezing Paris. Nicolas
Nice!

Nicolas, a very nice variation. Please allow me to contribute: Sub 6205 from 1954: Ex 1016 from 1963: Mixed together, they are just like yours! Best, Anatol...
I wouldn't mix these Beauties, Anatol

Hi Nicolas my friend Thankyou for sharing the explorer pictures. Great patina indeed, but I am more looking for your priorities in life... first a no crownguard Sub... also one of my grail watches I have not come to yet.. With or without the Mercedes hand...
Well, Hans

I would like to get a 6538, for the unbelievable strength of its biga case and crown. But all those I see comes with a mat service dial, and those which comes with a laquered gilt dial are way too pricey. So, what to do? Getting a 6538 service dial, OR go...

I agree, Bas
By: amanico : December 5th, 2009-01:23
These Big crowns have an unbelievable look. I saw the 6538 and the 5508, I had the opportunity to put them side by side, and frankly, if I could, I would go for the 6538. The only problem is that if you want a 6538 with a gilt original dial, you have to s...
