Rolex Explorer II 226570 42 mm Stainless Steel with White Dial

The Rolex Explorer II 42 mm is a benchmark in robust tool-watch engineering, designed for adventurers who navigate the extremes. Its stainless steel case, crafted from Rolex’s highly durable Oystersteel, delivers exceptional resistance to corrosion while maintaining a refined, modern aesthetic. The fixed 24-hour bezel, rendered in brushed steel, reinforces the watch’s purpose-built functionality, supporting simultaneous day–night or dual-time-zone tracking.

The white dial, known among collectors as the “Polar dial,” offers superb legibility through its stark contrast with the black hour markers and hands. The striking orange 24-hour hand—an homage to the original 1971 Explorer II—enhances both visual character and practical capability. Paired with the Oyster bracelet, designed for comfort and endurance, the Explorer II remains a trusted companion for those who demand reliability in the world’s most challenging environments. It stands as a testament to Rolex’s commitment to precision, durability, and exploration heritage.
