Rolex Explorer 36 ref. 124270

The Rolex Explorer, reference 124270, embodies the timeless elegance and spirit of adventure that have shaped Rolex’s history. With its 36 mm Oystersteel case, this historic size pays tribute to the original 1953 model, designed to accompany the exploits of mountaineering pioneers, including the ascent of Everest. A BALANCED AND REFINED DESIGN The black lacquered dial is a masterpiece of simplicity and readability, with its distinctive Arabic numerals at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock. These applied hour markers, filled with Chromalight, ensure optimum visibility even in the dark. The perfect balance between proportions and refined details gives the dial a timeless aesthetic, while remaining impeccable in functionality. A BRACELET OF EXCEPTIONAL PRECISION The watch is equipped with the famous stainless steel Oyster bracelet, robust and comfortable. This bracelet, with its secure Oysterlock clasp and Easylink adjustment system, reflects all of Rolex’s expertise, combining comfort, finesse and durability. THE QUINTESSENCE OF WATCHMAKING FINESSE With its perfectly controlled thickness, the Rolex Explorer ref. 124270 elegantly adapts to all occasions, from the most demanding explorations to the most distinguished evenings. Its automatic movement caliber 3230 guarantees precision, reliability and an exceptional power reserve of 70 hours. ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PIECES FROM ROLEX The Explorer 36 ref. 124270 is much more than a watch: it is an icon, a symbol of exploration and watchmaking perfection. Its historic size, balanced design and impeccable finish make it one of Rolex’s most admired and desired creations. A watch that spans generations with elegance and timelessness.
