Hi everybody here, Im interested in getting the Explorer II. As Im a beginner and this is my first Rolex, is it a good choice
Pls recommend. thanks

Nothing wrong with Pre-Owned watch, but be careful to buy authentic ones from a reputable dealer and authenticate with RSC of course.

Always go with Gold Watch be it Daytona or any other model (Uncle Talk)

Guys, if its for personal wear, would you still go for a per-own watch?
If you have eyes locked onto a model, is price the primary deciding factor? Or you'd consider the merchant reputation?

How much will a pre owned daytona be? if im looking a something techincal, is daytona the choice?

planning on getting first rolex later this year and have been really liking the explorer II with white face, I don't really care about re-sale value, usually do not sell watches that i really like and can bond with, is the explorer II a good choice or am i better off with a Submariner with date? And where would be a good place to buy it pre-owned?

if u like explorer series, u can consider explorer I.. looks really good!

[cktandrew]

Agree, I just got mine yesterday. Absolutely in love with it.

yup! especially the adjustable clasp... perfect!

Since you are "I don't really care about re-sale value...", any of the two models you choose is a good choice. Buy the one you like best. The more obvious "good place" to buy a pre-owned one will be from the forum sales garage sections.

Hi all,

I'm considering purchasing my first rolex and currently keen in the Submariner Date (116610LN) black dial.

Retail is at 11k seeking advice/opinion regarding the watch. I am totally clueless when it comes to Rolex.

I feel your first watch just buy things that u really like n u r confident in the watch.
