I came across a nice specimen 16710 over the weekend.

Coke dial with red color on the bezel aged to now redish. The fade on the red us nice. Dated back to 2001 full warranty papers boxes calendar very nice. Correct bracelet number. The only thing which bothers me is that it was polished case and bracelet. No parts repaired or replaced. Serviced and authenticated by RSC itself. Missing 2 links but the damn watch fits me well. My treasurer questioned me when I was so tempted. She asked " how many watches can you wear on one wrist " and " do you want to buy the whole Rolex ? " if u get what I mean. it was a nice watch. It was pre-loved shop with many Crowns. They have the Sea Dwellers, the Deepsea, Subs, even Explorers. Expected market price if u were to get one in the UK maybe better.

Hi All Of late, I've been searching for a pre-owned Explorer 1. Initially, I was thinking of a 14270. And of course the devils here are tempting me with the 1016, you know who you are : ) believe me, I spent a good number of hours learning and soaking in ...

2001 one. I've owned both, and I can tell you, the problem isn't at the bottom, it is the crown on the dial. The 2001's crown looks much better and natural. This type of crowned was produced along the other one (the 2005 one in your photo), and can still ...

I am leaning towards the 2001 too

I like the coronet crown on the clasps better too. I just needed to verify this difference in the dial printing of the minute track Thanks JCY Gary

Hahaha don't we all have a treasurer who thinks alike

Thats the thing about pre-loved watches in kl. Prices are always just a notch higher than what we see online. But after a bad experience previously, i am not as willing to do online purchases anymore when the sum gets bigger. Choices are limited when we t...
