Buying this Rolex Explorer II 226570 42mm
Above all, we hold one Rolex Explorer II 226570 42mm rather than a restockable line. Therefore the watch in the gallery is the watch that ships to you. For example, we photograph the caseback and the clasp, not only the dial. Meanwhile, you can weigh it against Rolex Daytona Big Red 37mm Steel 6265, or against Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 40mm Rose Gold 2022. Similarly, the rest of our Rolex watches and the wider watch collection move every week.
How we authenticate and grade it
We authenticate every watch in house before listing it, so the grade above is ours rather than a consignor’s summary. However, condition language shifts from seller to seller, so we describe wear in plain words as well. Because sunlight fades a dial faster than wear does, store it out of direct light. In addition, how we authenticate sets out the process.
Shipping and import charges
We ship worldwide and insure every parcel, at no cost to you. However, import charges depend on where you live, so budget for them early. In short, the landed cost matters as much as the ticket price, and we set out the arithmetic in VAT, duty and the true landed cost. Meanwhile our Instagram shows what has just landed, and Facebook carries the same arrivals. If this Rolex Explorer II 226570 42mm is not the one, read what to check on a pre-owned watch next, then what moves resale value, and returns and refunds covers the rest.
