Rolex Explorer II 226570

The Explorer II is the Rolex built for people who lose track of day and night, cavers and polar crews, and the 226570 is its modern Polar. The white lacquer dial is the signature, black-outlined markers and hands filled with Chromalight, and an orange 24-hour hand sweeping above them. A fixed steel 24-hour bezel rings the 42mm Oystersteel case, on an Oyster bracelet. Inside runs the automatic caliber 3285, its hour hand set independently for a second time zone, with a 70-hour reserve. Dated June 2021, a full set with box and papers. Among Rolex watches, the Polar reads brightest.
