Description: I bought this watch to wear, but prefer another lateral one I bought later. It has been serviced and lives on a winder. It should be with a collector. The Rolex Explorer II ref. 1655 debuted in 1971, and was quickly nicknamed the Steve McQueen (because it is beleived to be the watch he wore in "Bullit:), or 'Freccione' (Arrow--for the hands) by the Italian collectors for the bright orange arrow-shaped 24-hour hand. It was only produced from 1971 through 1984, designed originally for spelunkers and cavern explorers who couldn't tell if it was day or night outside. Rolex easily solved this with the 24-hour orange arrow-shaped hand along with the 24-hour military time bezel. This watch has stainless steel case on a stainless steel Oyster 78360 bracelet and #580 end links, case and bracelet are in excellent condition with thick lugs, automatic Rolex caliber 1570 movement, original Mark IV dial with nicely matching tritium on dial and hands, date with cyclops at 3 o'clock, iconic orange hand serves as AM / PM indicator, acrylic crystal, screw down crown, 38mm diameter: 39mm, thickness: 13.5mm, Excellent Condition.
