MK1 Straght Hand Explorer Orange Hand Barn find - possibly the best ever

ok so here it is down and dirty.  Totally original 1655 Explorer straight hand as found.  The MK1 dial and hands have over the top incredible patina and are perfect shape under that old scraped up crystal..  The bezel is sharp and not missing any paint.  The Case is unpolished showing the original bevels and clean numbers with no pitting or corrosion.  The bracelet is the original USA rivet band with all of its links with moderate stretch.  The movement was found running but not well.  The watch is currently being cleaned and serviced and a new crystal and gaskets are being installed as well.  Will be delivered in pristine condition.  Comes complete with Box, original Punch guarantee, oyster manual and old explorer advertising materials. A real collectors dream.
