The Explorer II ref. 226570 in black dial form embodies the essence of Rolex's professional tool watches — precise, durable, and purpose-built for adventure. Crafted in Oystersteel, the 42mm case is complemented by a fixed 24-hour bezel and the signature orange GMT hand, allowing wearers to track day and night hours or a second time zone with ease. The bold black dial features luminous arrow-shaped hour markers, Chromalight display technology ensuring a long-lasting blue glow in low-light conditions, and an oversized orange 24-hour hand — enabling easy distinction between AM and PM in the most extreme environments. A date window at 3 o'clock sits beneath Rolex's signature Cyclops lens. Powered by Calibre 3285 — Rolex's self-winding GMT movement featuring the patented Chronergy escapement, Paraflex shock absorbers, 70-hour power reserve, and superlative chronometer certification to -2/+2 seconds per day. The robust Oyster bracelet with Oysterlock safety clasp and Glidelock extension system completes the package. Water resistant to 100 metres. Originally designed for cave explorers in 1971, the Explorer II remains one of the most purposeful and enduring references in the entire Rolex catalogue. Also known as: Rolex 226570, Rolex Explorer 2, Rolex Explorer II Black, Rolex GMT Explorer.
