Here's my gen 1959 Rolex 6427. I've had this watch for about 15 years and it has literally traveled the world with me, I never travel without it.

Love those leaf hands, looking for a set for my caliber 1030 but mad pricey!

I really like your explorer 2. How would you mod it?

probably

gen crystal
gen insert
age dial a bit
age hands
regulate movement
Soften bracelet

Tagfan is the man so he will have first shot at modding it.
