ABOUT THIS WATCH

• Manufactured from 1989 to 2011, the Explorer II reference 16570 is a no-nonsense tool watch with a rugged charm no longer seen in modern Rolexes
• ​The 16570 is widely regarded as the sweet spot between modern reliability and a classic aesthetic reminiscent of vintage Rolex designs
• ​The ergonomically-friendly 40mm stainless steel case is a departure from the larger dimensions seen on contemporary Rolex watches, and offers suitability for a wide range of wrist sizes
• ​Unique to the Explorer II is a brushed steel 24-hour bezel, which can be referenced against the red GMT hand to track two time zones simultaneously
• ​Beneath the screw-down rear casing beats Rolex’s calibre 3185, an automatic certified-chronometer with a 48-hour power reserve
