Hi guys, I'm selling my ULTRA RARE Rolex Explorer 14270 'Blackout' Named by Hodinkee as one of the rarest modern Rolexes, these were limited to the very earliest Rolex sapphire sport watches \~1989 E-serial and X-serial. The earliest of the Explorer Blackouts (this watch) feature a silver dial printing that plays with the light like a vintage Rolex gilt dial. These are the ONLY Rolex sport watch with silver dial printing. This particular watch also features the extremely rare seconds hand with lume dot closer to the minutes track. About 50% of blackouts have this. See photos– appears unpolished, light scratches on polished surfaces and light bracelet stretch.
