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.

    Excellent Ad!

    I have purchased a handful of ads from Nick! The ads always arrive quickly and in great condition! This Rolex Explorer Matterhorn advertisement is one of my favorites! I will definitely be purchasing more in the future. The ads that I currently have framed in my home are complimented by everyone! You can’t go wrong with AdPatina! Thanks!

    Ads, as advertised.

    I had a fantastic experience with Ad Patina. The ad I ordered arrived exactly as pictured, in excellent condition, and was packaged with great care.

    Delivery was impressively fast, and communication over IG DM was clear and responsive throughout the process.

    Unique products, top-notch service, and a smooth experience from start to finish—I’ll definitely be ordering again.

    Highly recommended!

    An impossible to find ad featuring my Rolex Daytona

    What a wonderful surprise to find an ad for my exact Daytona reference from the 1990s! Looks amazing framed. Great personal service from Nick. I look forward to more finds on the website. Super cool idea that fills an otherwise grossly under-served niche.

    Excellent Service!

    Ordered this Ad for my brother, who just got a bluesy sub. It arrived promptly and, as always, with a nice hand written note. This gesture, like the Ads, was a wonderful throwback. Will need to buy an Omega one soon!
