Rolex Oyster Perpetual 'Explorer Dial'

When it comes to "budget" Rolex, there are few watches more attractive than an Oyster Perpetual. It’s not hard to make the argument that the Oyster Perpetual is one of the most versatile time-only watches on the market, as all it takes is a strap change to transform this watch go a tuxedo accoutrement to a field watch or BBQ grill timer. When you factor in that they have been made available in a broad variety of fun dial color configurations, the appeal grows even more. This particular example, a Reference 116000, dates to circa the 2020s and features a 36mm stainless steel Oyster case with a sapphire crystal, a beautiful sunburst blue 'Explorer' dial with applied luminous indices and a matching handset, a smooth polished steel bezel, a signed crown, and a stainless steel Oyster bracelet with Rolex's Oysterclasp. Everything you need, and nothing you don't. Arguably the purest expression of a Rolex! These timepieces are incredibly versatile for everyday use, and can easily be dressed-up for formal occasions or dressed-down and worn as a sporty everyday companion.
