Rolex Explorer II 216570 Black Dial

A modern update to the long enduring 16570, the Explorer II 216570 is quite a different piece aesthetically to its forebears. Now featuring a 42mm steel case with maxi dial, it's a proper tool watch with GMT capability for those that perhaps find the 40/41mm range a touch small for their tastes. The Explorer II also one of the more under-the-radar sports pieces, and always has been, which definitely has its own appeal for those wanting to enjoy their watch without the attention some of the other more recent models attract.

Featuring a 42mm Oystersteel case topped with a stunning sunburst 24-hour fixed bezel, it houses a maxi-dial with orange second timezone hand, and is powered by the calibre 3187.

This particular piece was first sold in 2014 and presents in TZ Good condition. The case shows some scratching and marks consistent with regular use, and the presence of some small pin dents and light nicks around the case. Rear of the lugs show marks from strap changes, and the case back shows some rub marks. Bracelet and clasp shows some scratching and light scuffs. Please see images for full condition details.

Service history is unknown. Winds smoothly, date changes over at midnight, and keeping COSC timing.

Includes outer box, inner box, instruction booklet, expired warranty card, card holder, hang tags, Watch Vault cleaning cloth and spare link to complete the bracelet.
