More on the condition - (from ssong's site)

This Rolex Explorer 1655 is in good condition. The case has been polished in the past but it retains a very thick case with even lugs in excellent condition. The case is free from any noticeable scratches and it has its original signed crown. The serial and reference numbers between the lugs remain deep and legible. The 78360 Oyster bracelet is in excellent condition and is very tight along with its clasp. This watch has its correct Mk IV thin font bezel.

The Mk V dial is in excellent condition and all lume remains intact. The lume has aged to a very nice yellow patina. The hands are likely to be service replacements with a darker lume. This Explorer has its correct silver open ‘6’ and ‘9’ date wheel. This watch is in full working order and is keeping time within acceptable vintage standards.
