spa Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 This is an Explorer II advertised as genuine. Should the model number (green sticker on the back) be worn off while the rest of the sticker is in perfect condition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Mja.. It is possible for the model number to wear off. It is just printed on the sticker, as far as I know. I guess this is the real deal, the crown and guards looks real, and it has black rings around the hour-markers. Very nice model.. White face Explorer II is one of few modern Rollies I like..

fitmic Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 I'd say fake. The 12 o clock marker is slightly off to the left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pro expert dan Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 the model number is made to wear off, so that it indicates that it is new or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shasta Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Its a gen. GMT hand is in correct postion on the stack. If it was ETA or Asian GMT hand would be on the bottom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cortopar Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Not necessarily. There are some ETA's with correct hand stack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fitmic Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Yeah, no kidding . . . the guy should be a detective! ; ) Bill It's because I don't know ANYTHING about Rolex. When you guys talk about crown guards, I don't know what to look for. They all look the same to me. I have to go for crooked markers and stuff.
