Thank you!! Thanks for watching

The 6150 says “Explorer” on it. It wasn’t the first to say “Explorer”?

[@a_geologist]

Sorry, you do say some 6150s had “Explorer” on them. Thanks for an informative video 👏

[@NotAnotherWatchChannel]

Yeah 6150 had both versions of the dial

I just acquired a ref. 124270 and was curious about the (sometimes confusing) history. Thanks for sharing your findings!

Thank you for the vid! By the way: Successor of the 1016 was the 14270 , not 14720!☝😉

[@oliver7239]

...and, of course, the 114270 instead of 114720...😊

[@oliver7239]

Both, 214270 Mk 1 and Mk 2, have lumed hands - the difference is, that the 3, 6, 9 was not lumed at the 214270 Mk 1. Also the hands were smaller and shorter at the MK 1.

I def meant not lumed 369, since that’s what I have and know it 😂, and 270vs 720 was def just a Freudian slip over and over
