This is a very good Rolex Explorer II ref.1655 in stainless steel with Oyster folded bracelet.
Manufactured in 1972, this late so called 'Straight Hand? model has got the second hand withour a bubble.
Very wanted and quite rare collectors piece !
The Orange Hand, Steve McQeen or Freccone is one of the legendary Rolex sport model from the old times.
The model then was used by expeditions teams and mountain climber like Reinhold Messner. He wore the Explorer II at his solo climb to the Nanga Parbat in 1978.
