Explorer 14270 Check

Recently came across an A serial 14270 that has passed my sniff test, would like the more experienced eyes here to check it out.

Serial, dial, bracelet and end links all seem to be period correct. And I know can’t be 100% sure unless caseback off to check movement. Let me know any more photos needed. Thanks!

People can give you good opinions, but the only way to know for sure is RSC. Pay the $1k for the peace of mind.

In contrast to the comment above, seems legit and a nice condition for its age. Let’s not forget that this is a 24 year old watch…

Watch looks great. If that is what we would call beat, mine is ready to go in the trash.

looks good to me. The top of the lugs still has the brushed/matte finish, so that's a good thing. I think the condition is above average. These are a steal right now.

Thanks all, it actually belong to friend’s father with no provenance or papers that lived in a drawer for a decade, just didn’t want to start off with that cliched authenticity check line
