Description: The 14270 Explorer is the close descendant of the infamous 1016 Explorer. Maintaining the 36mm case, it wears with ease and pairs well with casual jeans or a summer suit. The lack of a thick bezel makes it the ideal discrete sports watch and has recently become a favorite of ours outside the traditional Sub or GMT watch. What makes these tritium lume variants more appealing to us than their later luminova counterparts was the use of tritium and white enamel on the dial. The white enamel stays stark white while the tritium ages to a creamy yellow hue. This contrasts sets the watch apart from all modern Explorers. The case is excellent on this watch and the lugs and thick and even all around and appears unpolished
