Hi, I just made an impulse buy at a reputable preowned store. I was wondering if there is anything wrong with this one. Im not keen on Explorer 2 models and was wondering if the watch looks right. Thanks in advance for the inputs.

From what I see, except the mismatch between the hands and the indexes
No problem, for me. It is a nice 16 570. But the white hands compared to the vanilia indexes let me a bit perplex. What does say the seller? Best, Nicolas
you're right
I was wondering about that. I think the hands should have matched the patina of the indexes by now. Guess I have to ask the seller about this one. cheers thanks for pionting it out
And if the seller tells you that the watch has been serviced ...
Ask him to scan you the invoice, as it will allow you to see if the hands were changed ( What I guess ), and with what the hands have been changed... Best, Nicolas
