Such a classic piece!
Just arrived and it fits like a glove on my ~6.5" wrist. It came complete and like NOS from one of the best, Sunny Arizona

Beautiful !!!! Awesome !!!

I worn A Ref. 14270 / Cal. 3000 for 6 years ! I love it !!!
Early 90's there really was a waiting list for the Explorer 36 mm.
(which I still have and never will sell)

Funny !

I wear now Ref. 228206 / Cal. 3255
It's 4 mm bigger and has a day and date display and also different material.
Which of course is slightly more expensive.
But actually the same style !

THE CLASSIC & COOL STYLE !!!

Fantastic choice
I have gone from 5 watches to one.
The 114270 is a perfect watch for me and a keeper.
