The Rolex Explorer II with reference number 216570 was introduced in 2011 and was produced until 2021.
The Rolex Explorer II with reference number 216570 has several defining features. The first and most noticeable would probably be the larger case size of 42mm, which is bigger than the 40mm of previous Explorer II models. This Explorer II also features a 24-hour graduated bezel and a calibre 3187 automatic movement. You can find this particular Explorer II in Oystersteel with a white or black dial. The white dial is sometimes referred to as the Polar dial. It also can withstand depths of up to 100m and includes a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal for added durability.
Overall, it’s a classic Explorer that can withstand the elements. Whether you’re climbing Everest or just working at the office, it’s a watch that won’t let you down.
As far as history goes, the Rolex Explorer has one of the most interesting backgrounds in the Rolex catalogue. As mentioned, the Explorer was introduced after Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay donned Rolexes on their way up Mount Everest. Their incredible accomplishment, and Rolex’s robust design that lasted the whole trip, inspired the company to release a watch to celebrate the ascent. Thus, the Explorer was born.
The 216570 Explorer was first introduced in 2011 and featured a larger case size. It still boasts the great design that people expect of the Rolex Explorer, but with a larger profile.
