Just stopped by Goldstein, Swank & Gordon in Marlborough MA tonight to see what I could see. Nice selection of Celloni's and all 3 Milgauss dials in stock.

Almost went for this: Thy have a new 114270 36mm Explorer I. No longer made and hard to find at an AD.

They want the original MSRP of $5,050. no discount. I think if they would have moved I would have bought.

So it's there if this is what you seek. Ask for Dolores, friendly, hands-on, very knowledgable, been there 15 years.

Like - new examples can be found here for much less than that. I can't see paying full retail for a new watch that becomes used the second I pull off the stickers. Probably why I never buy new cars either.

Well know that we've been reminded that not everybody chooses to buy from an AD, let me restrict this 'Alert' the AD Crowd.

Cheers

Yes, I should have just said thanks for the tip - clearly you meant your post to alert those who'd want one brand new.

Apologies for lousy iPhone pic.

One of my favourite models.

However, if I bought one I'm not sure if I'd go for the 36mm or 39mm.
I'd have to try one on in the flesh.

Maybe one day, lottery numbers permitting.

I just bought a used 36mm last week, nice watch, It lasted about 15 minutes, then the wife seen it and just like magic, it was gone.

How does he like wearing it?

alanc · 21 February 2013, 08:22 AM

I love mine - comfortable and goes with everything, and stealthy. I think the 36mm is a better size for this design but I'm not a fan of supersizing generally.

Hi DJ,

Was at the same AD last month looking at their 216570. Asked for a discount with no luck. It was their lost. Found one here for less. They did have a nice display.

It's still there for a reason, and MSRP is it.
$4250-4500 would be nice - was that what you hoped for?
