Top Features of the Rolex Explorer II
The Rolex Explorer II's history dates back to the early 1970s. Initially, it was designed for spelunkers and arctic explorers, but it immediately gained popularity among adventurous watch lovers.
With its unique 24-hour hand and fixed bezel, the Explorer II became a symbol of strength, accuracy, and elegance. It is a stylish companion for anybody venturing into the unknown.
Here are some of the best features of the Explorer 2 Rolex:
-
Top-notch Material
This Rolex model showcases brand’s expertise in material science. These watches are made of Oystersteel, a corrosion-resistant alloy of the 904L steel family. Therefore, they are highly robust and have a beautiful finish.
Some versions have precious metal embellishments, which add richness to their rugged appearance. The dial is protected by scratch-resistant sapphire crystals, guaranteeing maximum visibility in various situations.
Rolex's dedication to quality extends to the unique Cerachrom bezel, which offers outstanding UV ray protection and scratch resistance while preserving its brilliant beauty over time.
-
Precise Movement
The Rolex Explorer II has a high-precision, self-winding mechanical movement. Earlier variants were fitted with the calibre 3185, but more modern versions use the improved calibre 3187.
Both movements are certified Swiss chronometers that fulfil COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute) accuracy and reliability criteria. The calibre 3187 has Rolex's revolutionary Parachrom hairspring, which provides improved resilience to shocks and temperature changes.
The Rolex Explorer II watch also features Paraflex shock absorbers, which increase durability. Its power reserve is roughly 48 hours, ensuring continuous timekeeping even when left unworn for lengthy periods.
-
Useful Dial
The Explorer II's dial combines usefulness and elegance. It is available in two colour options: traditional white or striking black. The dials have highly legible hands and hour markers coated with Rolex's Chromalight luminous substance.
This revolutionary feature produces a long-lasting blue glow in low-light circumstances, ensuring exceptional reading. The striking orange 24-hour hand syncs with the fixed 24-hour bezel to provide a second-time zone. A date window is situated at 3 o'clock, shielded by Rolex's Cyclops glass for easy viewing.
This combination makes the Explorer II not only physically stunning but also reasonably practical for adventurers and travellers.
-
Sturdy Watchband
The Rolex Explorer II comes equipped with a sturdy Oyster bracelet made of the same Oystersteel as the case. This three-piece link bracelet has a folding Oysterlock safety clasp and an Easylink comfort extension link, which allows for simple adjustment of up to 5mm.
The watch's sturdy build and tight clasp guarantee it stays in place throughout activities. For customisation, various aftermarket strap options are available, such as:
- Leather Straps: These provide a refined appearance while preserving the Explorer II's mobility. These straps, which are available in a variety of colours and finishes ranging from traditional black to deep brown, may make the watch look more sophisticated. The silky leather is comfortable enough to wear all day.
- Rubber Straps: These long-lasting, water-resistant, and flexible straps, available in black, blue, and orange, are ideal for busy lives. They complement the Explorer II's athletic style.
- NATO straps: These straps, with their loop-under construction, provide a casual, military-inspired style with added security. These straps allow for easy customisation due to the variety of colours and patterns available.
