USED Explorer luxury watches
The Explorer was released in 1953 to commemorate the achievement of the world's first ascent of Mount Everest.
It was developed as a professional watch for adventurers, based on the Oyster watch worn by the British Himalayan Expedition that made the first ascent of the mountain.
The "214270," released in 2010, saw its case size increased from the previous 36mm to 39mm. Starting in 2016, the white inlays on the 3, 6, and 9 indexes were abolished, and Chromalight luminous material was installed, which glows blue for long periods even in the dark, further improving legibility. The movement is Rolex's proprietary "Cal. 3132."
In 1971, the Explorer II was released, equipped with a 24-hour counter to distinguish between day and night even in harsh environments. This distinctive model is still a popular first model today.
The current model is the 216570. Released in 2011, it revives the iconic orange hands of the original Explorer II, making it a popular model that has captivated not only fans of the original but also general users.
The movement is the Cal. 3187, which boasts a 48-hour power reserve.
