The Rolex 16570 Explorer II Watch
Production Years:
The Rolex Explorer II with reference number 16570 entered production in 1989 and was discontinued in 2011.
Defining Features:
The Rolex Explorer II 16570 comes in tough stainless steel for the case and bracelet. The polar white or the black dial colour options help to make the watch face highly visible in any condition. The 40mm size also makes this a perfect fit for many wrists and adds to the high degree of legibility.
The watch is equipped with Rolex’s powerful and precise 3135 calibre movement. The bezel is stationary and an additional 24-hour indication is there for keeping track of two time zones. The Rolex Explorer II is rugged, sporty, and the perfect companion to any adventure, whether it be to the top of the mountain or down to the pub.
About Rolex Model Number 16570
Rolex is a storied watch brand known for being on the forefront of as adventurers journey on land, sea, and air alike. On the famous Everest Expedition, when Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay became the first people to reach Mount Everest’s summit, they were wearing Rolex Oyster watches. It is said that this event inspired the Rolex Explorer collection. Later, the Rolex Explorer II would be released with modern upgrades.
Though this watch never reached the heights of popularity like other sporting watches such as the Submariner or GMT-Master, it still has a dedicated following as an underrated Rolex timepiece. Unlike the diving and pilot watches Rolex makes, this one is made to withstand all types of harsh land conditions, such as summiting a great mountain. If you’re looking for something unique from Rolex, the Rolex Explorer II 16570 won’t let you down.
