A highly collectible Rolex Explorer II Ref. 1655, featuring the coveted MK1 “Straight Hand” configuration, serial 3.362XXX, dating to circa 1971. The stainless steel case is in excellent condition, having been polished in the past, and shows light wear consistent with age. The original MK1 tritium dial is very good, with eggshell patina and perfectly matching tritium hands. The bezel is a later Rolex service replacement in excellent condition. The watch is fitted with a period-correct Mexican Jubilee bracelet, which shows very light stretch for its age and complements the vintage look beautifully. The caseback was recently replaced by Rolex Geneva due to damage, and the serial and reference numbers between the lugs remain well defined. This watch has just returned from a full service by Rolex Geneva in 2024 and is offered in excellent overall condition. An iconic and increasingly rare early Explorer II — the “Steve McQueen” — combining vintage character with modern Rolex service peace of mind.
