Hello,

I found this F series explorer for good price that suits for me. I have question regarding this watch authenticity. I looks authentic for me. But i need your rolex experts help.

looks okay to me

looks good

Onequik135i · 9 September 2018, 03:13 AM

Looks great, cool to see they were the original AD in 2005 as well.

aurenas · 9 September 2018, 06:45 AM

Does the box and papers from 2005 look the same? Should be this box or older one?

I have a 2006 oyster date came in the new style box. I am sure there is a thread here somewhere on box styles

I just read that few minutes ago. But thanks anyway! But how about papers? I found some f series have older papers

That bezel appears to have been polished - the radial brushing isn't present in the pictures like I'd expect to see... and the numerals might be a bit glossy as well. Maybe just unclear pics, but if not, that's a bummer. Doesn't mean it's not genuine, but may mean it was poorly serviced.

Doesn’t look like an RSC-quality polishing. Far from it.

Sweetswisssteel · 9 September 2018, 07:52 AM

100% agree, poor polishing changes the look. If you really have doubts, send it to Rolex for a service quote

Looks good!

Clean watch and correct box (green wave box started 2005) & def looks polished. I’m far from an expert but I am comparing it to mine which is unpolished. Your lugs appear thinner in a few angle shots and are not as sharp but overall a nice clean full set.

Scapegoat · 9 September 2018, 10:08 PM

Beautiful

Nikrnic · 10 September 2018, 09:02 AM

Looks like a fine example, I don't think you can do much better.
