Explorer 1 14270 Blackout - Seconds hand
How is the Explorer blackout different ? I am confused: I thought that only difference to "normal" 14270 was that blacking of number 3 - 6 - 9 and for some early E serial numbers also silver print on the dial.
But I come across a comment from Hemingway dated on 20th of Maj 2016: The Blackout explorer is also more than just a dial– they have a unique seconds hand– the lume dot is further out compared to the 'normal' 14270 Explorer. I have myself seen several Explorer "blackout" where seconds hand is no different then a "normal" 14270 - are the fake?. Can any one confirm or comment if an Explorer 1 is only regarded a genuine "blackout" if also seconds hand lume dot is further out vs. the "normal" 14270 or if the blackout Explorer also used the standard seconds hands? Anyone out there expert in this area? |
