Rolex Explorer II (Reference 226570-0002)

The Explorer II is an instrument for explorers that combines clear functionality with robust engineering. The 42 mm stainless steel case offers a powerful presence and is water resistant to 100 meters. On the black dial, Chromalight luminescent hour markers along with a date magnifier at 3 o'clock ensure excellent legibility; the additional 24-hour display together with an arrow-shaped GMT hand helps to clearly distinguish day from night.

Inside, calibre 3285 beats with approximately 70 hours of power reserve — reliable and precise even over extended periods. Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, and the stainless steel bracelet with a secure folding clasp provides comfort and hold even in demanding situations. The Explorer II Ref. 226570-0002 impressively demonstrates how Rolex unites functionality, legibility, and durability in a sporty-elegant tool watch concept. It is powered by an automatic movement. The watch is delivered new, with its original box and original documents including warranty and papers.

Frequently asked questions about this model

How much does the Rolex Explorer II cost?

How quickly can the Rolex Explorer II be delivered?

The current delivery time for the Rolex Explorer II is 2-4 weeks. Shipping is free and insured.

What is the difference between the Explorer II 226570-0002 and the 226570-0001?

Both versions share the same case, calibre and Oyster bracelet. The 226570-0002 has a black dial with polished white gold hands and hour markers, while the 226570-0001 has a white dial with black-coated hands.

What is the orange 24-hour hand on the Explorer II 226570 for?

The arrow-tipped orange hand completes one rotation every 24 hours and indicates on the fixed 24-hour bezel whether it is day or night. Rolex cites cave explorers and polar nights as examples, where there is no daylight for orientation. Because the hour hand can be set independently, the watch can also display a second time zone.

What is new about the Explorer II 226570 compared with its predecessor, the 216570?

Rolex introduced the 226570 in 2021, 50 years after the Explorer II was launched in 1971. It uses calibre 3285 instead of calibre 3187 and gained an Easylink extension on the Oyster bracelet. The case still measures 42 mm, while the lugs are slightly slimmer.

What are the technical specifications of the Rolex Explorer II?

Case diameter: 42 mm. Calibre: 3285. Power reserve: 70 hours. Water resistance: 100 m.
