I recently bought a used Explorer2 from a watch shop. D series. from one of the web site I found out that Rolex
started engraving serial number inside the bezel just prior to D series. But mine come without. Anything wrong
with the one I bought? Can someone help?

Which website did you get the information from? I thought the 'engraving' only started from the late 'Z' series onwards?? I'm not too sure if the 'D' series models come with it.

Ya, agree with Bro Oceanklassik. The engraving only started with the late Z series. D series do not come with engraving.

I wanted to change my EX2 dial to white..but RSC quoted SGD600.So expensive!

[charleslin]

$9100.

But discount quite low already, maybe 10% max if you are lucky.

[Milgauss74]

I walked into 2 ADs at Suntec this week, they do not have any exp2 left. From the new price, seems like few models increased by ~5.2%. So exp2 should be around 9100 now.

You might wanna to try City Hall Cortina? I saw a white polar Explorer II two days ago retailing at 9100 SGD.

Woah, thanks for your reply there.
It seems like I can't save faster than a price increase...

[Oceanklassik]

I'm not too sure about the new price (if it was affected in the recent increase) but the last was $8,645 with no/little discount (may be 5% if you are lucky). If what has been said here about the recent increase of 5% to 7% was true, you are probably looking at an increased price of $9,077.25 (if based on 5% increase) or worse, $9,250.15 (if based on 7% increase).
