Ref 1655 Explorer II with "Red" 24hr hand

Err buddies...Orchi hopes to get some proper advise from the experienced forumers here about Ref 1655 Explorer II with "Red" 24 hand.

1. Was the Red 24hr hand introduced by Rolex...earlier than the Orange 24hr hand...for Ref 1655...or the vice versa is correct?

2. Would the Orange hand Explorer II fetch higher market price than the one with Red hand?...assuming both are in similar conditions.

Any kind advise is much appreciated...TQ.

First came the orange hand, then the red.

An orange hands tend to fetch a premium.
