Description
40 years after the first Explorer II came to market, Rolex released the ref. 216570. As a nod towards the inaugural model ref. 1655 from 1971, the newest variation of the line boasts a similar orange arrow hand on the dial. The case how now been upgraded to a larger 42mm diameter and wears on a new-style Oyster bracelet secured by an Oysterlock clasp. A larger luminous display on the dial balances the heft of the new case and bracelet nicely for a feature set that is both robust and perfectly proportioned. The used Rolex 216570 black dial carries on the Explorer II’s reputation for optimal visibility while working in dark environments by offering a bright Chromalight display as well as a fixed 24-hour bezel that can be read against the orange hand to sync with military time as well as track day and night hours.Whether you seek the Explorer II 216570 for professional or personal use, the bold, modern proportions are sure to suit your style.
