FS: 1991 Rolex Explorer II Polar Chicchi Di Mais Tritium Patina
N serial (1991) Rolex Explorer II with yellow patina on the hour markers, nicknamed “Chicchi di Mais,” which is reminiscent of kernels of corn.
Yes, the hands are original to the watch. It is a question often asked with a difference between the patina of the hands and the dial. Truthfully, dials and hands were produced separately and assembled later. It is more common for hands to age differently from the dial, and this can be found in many examples of late 80s to early 90s. The case looks very strong, lug holes are sharp and non-rounded, chamfers apparent but worn, usually a combination of indicators of the watch never being polished. There are signs of wear on the case and the bezel throughout. The bracelet was a later addition by the previous owner and is not original to the watch. It is older, with an I bracelet code and 501/501b end links. The bracelet has some stretch, and has been polished previously, as evidenced by the polished crown on the clasp. I’m asking $7,500 inclusive of shipping fees. I do ship internationally, but please inquire first. Bank wire or Zelle only. I am also open for a face to face in Los Angeles and Orange County. I have plenty of references here on TRF, as well as other forums (I can provide upon request). Please buy with confidence. All sales are final. Please let me know if you have any questions, either through PM, e-mail hello@mrsla.net or instagram @1mrsla.
