Help regarding Rolex 16570 EXP..

Guys...


I'm having a dilema here!!

Some of you may be aware that my boss owns a Rolex AD. I have taken some interest in the old model Explorer II white dial ref:16570 I'm aware the watch currently retails for around £4,550ish..

However... the watch which he has in stock is classed as "old stock" which has been sitting around the store since 2008. Obviously this watch has been going up and up during the price increases and I have been offered the watch at its old price from 2008. (My boss needs to contact Rolex to find out)..


My question to you is.. Does any of you knowledgable people know how much the watch retailed for in 2008?


Thank you for your help... I can feel a possible incoming on the way




-Dino
