    Gilt dial Explorer makes £31,000 at auction

    Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".

    It's a 6150 with gilt chapter ring dial - and look at that minute hand.

    Condition of the dial would be critical.

    It shows again how important the small differences are. Below is the gilt dial Explorer that I picked up a few weeks ago...



    ...but mine is "only" a common 1016 and the gilt dial has no chapter ring, so very different value.

    Your 1016 looks amazing!
    The one which was sold for 31000 reminds me of this one

    Yes, quite a good back story for this one, but the 1016 is just glorious!
