Rolex Explorer II

The Rolex Explorer II is a rugged, purpose-built timepiece designed for explorers and adventurers who often find themselves in extreme conditions. Introduced in 1971, this model is an evolution of the original Explorer and is particularly tailored for spelunkers, arctic explorers, and cave dwellers who spend long periods in environments with little to no natural light.

Key Features:

• Dual Time Zones: It features a 24-hour bezel and an additional orange 24-hour hand, allowing wearers to distinguish between day and night or track two time zones simultaneously.
• Robust Design: The 42mm Oyster case is crafted from Oystersteel, providing exceptional durability and water resistance up to 100 meters.
• 3285 Movement: Powered by Rolex's Caliber 3285 movement, it offers 70 hours of power reserve and the brand’s patented Chronergy escapement, known for high precision and energy efficiency.
• Chromalight Display: The watch hands and markers are coated with long-lasting luminescent material, making it easy to read in low-light conditions.

This series is iconic for combining robust functionality with timeless design, making it a favorite among adventurers and collectors alike.
