About this piece
The Rolex Explorer II reference 226570 is a purpose-built professional timepiece that blends rugged capability with refined Rolex craftsmanship. Housed in a bold 42-mm Oystersteel case, it features a fixed 24-hour graduated bezel and an additional orange 24-hour hand, allowing the wearer to clearly distinguish day from night or track a second time zone—an essential function for explorers working in extreme environments. Available with either a crisp white or deep black dial, both versions offer exceptional legibility through Chromalight luminescent markers and hands, complemented by the signature date display at 3-o’clock with a Cyclops lens. Paired with the robust Oyster bracelet and powered by a Superlative Chronometer-certified automatic movement, the Explorer II 226570 stands as a confident, versatile companion designed for adventure without compromising everyday elegance.
