Hey guys, some of you may know ive been after an Explorer II 42mm 216570 for a few weeks now. A chance has come up to buy one here in Spain, what do you think:

18 months old (6 months warranty) full set; all docs, books, tags, inner/outer boxes, warranty card, etc.

Seller will accept about $5750, what do you think, pull the trigger?

Seems pretty fair to me, most Ive seen are $6500+ region...?

Opinions welcome!

HRFdez · 9 June 2013, 02:57 AM

Sounds very reasonable and it looks good IMO. Go for it! Of course, I am a bit biased, I own the same model :-)

Chainring · 9 June 2013, 03:02 AM

Seems very good to me based on the prices I've seen. I'd jump all over that if I was in the market for one.

Blong · 9 June 2013, 03:02 AM

That seems like a great price!

Gaijin · 9 June 2013, 03:09 AM

Great price. If it all checks out then do it.

fastmd · 9 June 2013, 03:25 AM

Great price, much cheaper than I've seen here, just bought one.

Magic-Matt · 9 June 2013, 03:28 AM

Wow, didnt think the price was that spectacular myself, but from what you guys are saying I should probably jump on it ASAP!

CKL1213 · 9 June 2013, 03:29 AM

it's a bargain !

dcash0615 · 9 June 2013, 03:34 AM

Great deal! Buy the seller. Good luck

Thanks, the guy has good references going 3 years back and seems pretty decent.

Z-Sub · 9 June 2013, 03:40 AM

Great price.

xtra3cats · 9 June 2013, 03:41 AM

Go for it Matt, they don't come often at that price.

travisb · 9 June 2013, 03:47 AM

Great deal! I'd definately grab it!

SohAIS · 9 June 2013, 03:49 AM

Got for it. Sounds very fair price

Rashid.bk · 9 June 2013, 03:55 AM

Buy the seller. Thats an awesome price, do it now.

Watchflair · 9 June 2013, 04:00 AM

Seems fair. I did pay like $7100 new if that offers any point of reference. I purchased my Exp II in the fall of 12'

Urosfan · 9 June 2013, 04:12 AM

If its the real deal ill be all over that for that price

mrhy · 9 June 2013, 04:27 AM

Sounds good,I'll take it if you change your mind

oliphanttapp56 · 9 June 2013, 04:43 AM

wow, am i right in thinking that is 3800 pounds sterling, or about the same in euros? Sounds really good as long as all ok. If in great condition, sounds brilliant.

melons · 9 June 2013, 04:46 AM

Excellent price, if the seller checks out, buy it now!!

ra's ag · 9 June 2013, 05:37 AM

That's a great price if the watch is legit. Go for it. You may even make a few bucks if you flip it in a few years.

Watchdog · 9 June 2013, 05:41 AM

Not a bad price.

Brenngun · 9 June 2013, 05:45 AM

Very good price but it should make you be very careful. As others have said "buy the seller". In this case I would add "trust but verify".

Magic-Matt · 9 June 2013, 06:06 AM

The only down side Ive found so far is that its had 2 owners before this guy, so 3 in total! Bit weird, would it concern you guys? Ive spoken to the first owner now too, he told me he flipped it as it was just too big. The next guy is also available for contact, so might drop him a msg too. All seems to check out though, all 3 guys have good feedback. Still go for it?

subtona · 9 June 2013, 06:09 AM

It's been said before, "Buy the seller, not the watch."

That's a good price, significantly cheaper than mine.

luvsub · 9 June 2013, 08:22 AM

Low-mid 6 is a fair price, the price you said is a really good one. You should take it before someone else did. I like the white face. Good luck with your purchase. Show us the wrist shot.
