Story and Details

Of course this is an advertisement for the legendary, no-frills Explorer. But it's so much more... It's really an ad for ALL Rolex watches. The Explorer may be highlighted and mentioned, but the famous headline really speaks to the fact that a Rolex watch is robust and won't fail you. Besides the beauty of the imagery, that deeper message is the true beauty. This is also the earliest full-page ad I've found featuring the Ref. 1016.
