Rolex Explorer II 1655 80-81
Hi,
I’ve have a friend with a Explorer II 1655 that I probably going to buy of him. But I would like to hear from you guys, if it’s looks all right. If it’s the right dial, arms, bezel and so on. I am on summer holiday, and he doesn’t want to take of the bracelet. So I have to wait to get on to the serial number. But I will share some pictures of the watch. Best regards:Ed |

Thanks John18 Anyone who can tell med the MK of the dial and the bezel. My guess is it’s a MKIII bezel and MKIV dial. |

Here's my late MKII, 5.4 million serial. This reference is my favorite vintage Rolex date model. Nothing else like it.
