Explorer

Let's start exploring!
The watch for extraordinary deeds. That is what the Rolex Explorer was created for, shortly after Sir Edmund Hillary's first ascent of Mt. Everest.
The simple design with Arabic numerals at 3, 6 and 9 was intended to ensure maximum readability, while the movement, without a date or other technical refinements, offers the utmost reliability in all extreme conditions.
The Explorer we have on offer, reference 14270, dates from 1999. Although the watch case shows signs of wear on the sides, bezel and lugs, neither the case nor the bracelet has ever been polished. As a result, the lugs are still beautifully thick and the polishing on the top surface is still clearly visible.
The bracelet has almost no stretch and has the correct end link code for the watch.
The heart of the Explorer is the indestructible Calibre 3000 with a power reserve of approx. 42 hours.
