Rolex Explorer I Ref. 14270 – 36mm – Black Dial – Tritium – Classic Vintage

A true icon of understated luxury, the Rolex Explorer 14270 represents one of the most timeless and wearable designs ever produced by Rolex.

Featuring the classic 36mm stainless steel case, this model stays true to the original Explorer proportions — clean, balanced, and built for everyday wear.

This example is fitted with an original black tritium dial (“T Swiss T < 25”), showing natural aging consistent with its vintage character. As expected for tritium, the lume no longer glows significantly, confirming originality and authenticity.

Powered by a reliable automatic Rolex movement and fitted with its original Oyster bracelet, this watch offers both durability and elegance in a single piece.

The watch has been tested on a timegrapher, with results shown in the photos. It is running at approximately -9 to -11 seconds per day, with around 240° amplitude and low beat error (~0.2 ms), indicating a healthy and stable movement. No immediate service is required.
