A Rolex Explorer II is a classic and highly wearable iteration of the brand’s renowned expedition watch, presented in stainless steel with a black dial. The 40mm Oyster case offers traditional proportions that sit comfortably on the wrist, paired with a fixed steel bezel engraved with a 24-hour scale for clear day-and-night indication. The black dial is clean and highly legible, featuring luminous hour markers, Mercedes hands, and the signature orange 24-hour hand that defines the Explorer II identity.

This example is the reference 16570 and is powered by the Rolex Calibre 3185 automatic movement. Built for precision and durability, the movement is designed to perform reliably in demanding environments and allows independent adjustment of the 24-hour hand for tracking a second time zone. Dated to 2008, this reference represents the final era of the 40mm Explorer II before the model was upsized, making it particularly appealing to collectors who favour classic Rolex proportions.

Offered in immaculate condition, the watch is supplied boxed and certified, accompanied by its original Rolex paperwork. It is further supported by a 12-month WLC warranty, which offers confidence and reassurance at the time of purchase.
