Is my explorer authentic?

Hi all,

Hope everyone is swell. I bought a 2005 Explorer from HQMilton and wanted to check with some of you seasoned vets as to whether or not it is authentic. Want to get some insight before venturing to Rolex to get it "insured" for $200.

Link here: https://www.hqmilton.com/timepieces/...er-114270-7332

Can provide pictures of the actual watch if need be. Thank you.

Regards,
Sebastian

You can't go wrong with HQ Milton. You can trust this seller.

Milton is good. However, dangerous precedence to buy and then ask if is authentic.

Highly unlikely if even 100% unlikely a fake would slip pas HQ. I didn't even look at the pics but would vouch for the authenticity based on that alone
