Check an older serial, understand random serials and compare an estimated production period with your papers.
Reference 226570 is a 42 mm Explorer II generation. White-dial and black-dial examples should be described separately. Earlier Explorer II generations require individual identification rather than being priced as the current reference.
Show the additional hand, fixed 24-hour bezel and bracelet. Explain replaced hands, dials or bezels. Photographs help assess wear to the bezel engraving and case edges alongside the supplied documents.
Older and newer Explorer II watches differ in dimensions and details. Case preservation, hands, fixed bezel condition and originality help define the assessment. Service paperwork is useful where components have been changed.
For your Rolex Explorer II, send clear daylight photographs of the complete watch and close-ups of the relevant features. Include marks or damage rather than cropping them out. We compare the stated specification with the photographs and inspect the watch before confirming the offer. A reference identifies a version, but does not establish its condition or authenticity on its own.
Include the clasp, spare links and bracelet condition in your photos. Tell us about any problem with the date, crown or additional time display. We inspect function before agreeing the final offer and arranging payment.
Explain any known polishing, restoration or replacement components on your Rolex Explorer II. Ordinary wear, a repaired part and an aftermarket modification are different considerations. There is no need to arrange cosmetic work simply to request a quote. Tell us about faults and servicing so the assessment reflects the watch in its present condition.
Gather the box, warranty card or papers, purchase receipt, service invoices and spare links belonging to your Rolex Explorer II. Explain what is missing and whether a box was acquired separately. A service date and a purchase date are different from a production year. If you are unsure of the year, say so rather than treating an estimate as confirmed.
You can enquire without a complete set. Photographs and the information you have allow us to discuss the next step, with acceptance subject to verification. Keep the full serial number out of public posts and do not open the case yourself to find it. Your specialist can explain what identification is needed for the valuation and sale.
