Unlike the original Explorer (1953), which celebrated Everest expeditions and high-altitude exploration, the Explorer II was specifically made for environments where daylight is limited or nonexistent, such as caves or polar regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"246\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"648\"\u003eIts most distinctive feature is the fixed 24-hour bezel and an additional 24-hour hand, which allowed wearers to distinguish between day and night—a vital function for underground or polar expeditions. We have long felt that the 16570 Explorer II remains an underrated Rolex Professional watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"648\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"944\"\u003eWe are delighted to offer this very cool, classically proportioned 40mm sports watch. We love the striking pop of red on the 24-hour hand against the black dial. The case is an excellent example in superb condition, and the brushed fixed 24-hour bezel remains fantastic. The dial is marked SWISS and is flawless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"944\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1258\"\u003eOverall, we think this is a superb example. The 78790 bracelet is in very good condition, with a clasp stamped ‘X10’ and end links marked 501B. The watch comes with its original punched guarantee papers, showing a sale in Switzerland by retailer Bucherer in 1999.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1258\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1523\"\u003eThe watch has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1523\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1577\"\u003eThis Explorer II is the perfect choice for collectors who appreciate understated Rolex Professional watches—rugged, versatile, and quietly iconic, get in touch to get you this!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1755\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1757\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1774\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ak-ul\" data-indent-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1778\"\u003eRolex Reference 16570 Explorer II\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1815\"\u003e40mm steel case\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1834\"\u003eSerial A590xxxx dating to 1999\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1869\"\u003eBlack SWISS Only signed Dial\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1901\"\u003eBrushed 24hr steel bezel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1929\"\u003eBracelet reference 78790 with end links 501b\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1977\"\u003ePunched warrantee paper stating sale 1999 in Swiss, by Bucherer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2045\"\u003eRolex Hang tag with its serial\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2079\"\u003eFully serviced by our watchmaker\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2115\"\u003eOne-year mechanical warranty\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2147\"\u003eIncludes a handmade leather watch pouch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2190\"\u003eFree worldwide Fedex Priority shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rolex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52369666933077,"sku":"W-3631","price":7500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/7450\/3738\/files\/W-3631RolexExplorer2BlackSwissdialwithoriginalpunchedguaranteepaperref16570_385_1x1_944bb322-4f95-4221-9dcd-cec9295a68a7.jpg?v=1769597736","url":"https:\/\/www.bulangandsons.net\/products\/rolex-explorer-ii-16570-black-swiss-only-dial-with-original-punched-paper-w3631","provider":"Bulang and Sons Int.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
