A black dial. Three hands. The time, there when you need it. There is a great deal of care in making something this easy to live with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 114270 is a personal favorite. The steel case, the plain bezel, the white gold numerals at 3, 6, and 9: each part earns its place. You can appreciate the whole watch in a glance and still find yourself looking again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIan Fleming, the creator of James Bond, wore an Explorer 1016, an earlier reference in the same line. That is the association I like: a writer at his desk, wearing a watch built to go outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI like it as a first Rolex because the pleasure is in the wearing. It is legible, durable, and easy to make part of an ordinary day. Buy it to wear. That is where it makes its case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vaultedwatch.com\/blogs\/the-vault\/as-far-as-i-can-see\"\u003eRead the essay: As Far as I Can See →\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vaulted Watch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50505044754502,"sku":null,"price":6800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0715\/6993\/2358\/files\/Explorer_02.png?v=1790365006","url":"https:\/\/vaultedwatch.com\/products\/rolex-explorer-114270","provider":"Vaulted Watch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
