The Rolex 6150 is the earliest Explorer produced and is one of the rarest models. This is the 'Precision' variant although there are some with 'Explorer' on the dial (presumably later watches). The serial dates this one to around 1953 and it is featured in a VRF post. The Rolex Explorer remains indelibly associated with Sir Edmund Hillary's conquest of Mount Everest in 1953. I particularly like the rare pointed gilt hands which are incredibly rare to find today.
