The Explorer II is a natural heir to the Explorer as a reliable guide, a tool and a companion for explorers. When launched in 1971, the Explorer II set new standards for precision, strength, and clarity. It features a distinctive 24-hour hand, an invaluable aid to distinguish daytime hours from night around the poles and beneath ground. In its 40th anniversary year in 2011, the Explorer II received a total makeover. The case was increased from 40mm to 42mm and enlarged hands for enhanced visibility. But the most noticeable feature was the addition of the famous orange 24-hour hand ending in an arrow, mirroring the original Explorer II of 1971.
This Rolex Explorer II Orange Hand is supplied with the original Rolex boxes, instruction manual, both swing tags and Rolex warranty card. Dated October 2016, it has the benefit of the Rolex international guarantee until October 2021.
