·Instead of waiting to win the lottery and finding a beautiful 14270 that is well maintained, unpolished and above all that does not have the dial replaced or the hands relumed below 6k with the papers 😀 ... I decided to look for a nice vintage Rolex, if possible with a dial that looks like to an explorer. I found a first with an individual but I'm waiting for answers before telling you about it. I will therefore ask you for your opinion on a second one sold by a pro on chrono24.
It seems good to me but too expensive, we are talking about 3400EUR (without negotiation for the moment).
Then the case seems OK to me, the reference too and the serial numbers seem to match for 1955 (And I also learned that Rolex started from 0 around that time, which explains the serial number in 95389) .
I have trouble finding an equivalent model for comparison and my book "vintage watches" does not trace the model ...
The movement appears to be from the good era, manual, 1210.
What do you think ?
