An exceptional collector's treasure, this 1981 Rolex Explorer II 1655 "Steve McQueen" arrived new in the UK and has remained with its original owner ever since. Supplied as a complete set with an 18cm bracelet, this watch showcases factory-original condition with authentic patina on the pristine dial. Recently serviced by a certified Rolex watchmaker, it performs flawlessly while maintaining its unpolished finish—minor surface marks tell the story of careful ownership rather than heavy use. The plexi glass bears expected signs of age, yet the dial itself remains unmarked. Every component is original and unmodified, making this a genuine investment-grade timepiece with impeccable provenance. Personal viewing is highly recommended to appreciate its authentic character.

"Straight forward, no messing around deal with Martin. Everything agreed upfront pending inspection of watches, both ways, and no drama after travelling a significant distance. I’d recommend dealing with Box&Docs anytime and I’ve been doing this for more than a few years and also encountered many that get it wrong"

"I’ve bought and sold watches with Martin over the last 5 years. He is super responsive including outside normal working hours, reliable, efficient and trustworthy. He visited me at home personally for the most recent sale of a watch to inspect with instant payment - all without stepping outside my house! Rolls Royce (or Rolex I should say!) service.
Very impressive."
