Description
The Rolex Explorer with reference 214270 from 2015 occupies a very special position in the evolution of the legendary tool watch. Introduced in 2010, Rolex enlarged the iconic model for the first time from the historic 36 mm to a modern, imposing 39 mm case size. The 2015 production year represents the sought-after “Mark 1” dial variant of this reference - recognizable by the solid, polished 3, 6, and 9 numerals in White Gold (without luminescent material) and the characteristically slightly shorter hands. It embodies unadulterated purism, outstanding everyday practicality, and the unwavering spirit of the first Everest expeditions.
Striking 39 mm Oystersteel case: Crafted from corrosion-resistant 904L stainless steel (Oystersteel), the case offers a perfect balance of robust presence and excellent wrist ergonomics. Satin-finished surfaces meet finely polished case sides.
Smooth, high-polished stainless steel bezel: The fixed, domed bezel stylishly frames the black dial and emphasizes the watch’s timeless, tool-oriented all-round character.
Iconic matte-black dial (“Mark 1” configuration): The deep-black dial features the characteristic applied Arabic numerals 3, 6, and 9 in solid 18-karat White Gold. In this Mk1 version, the numerals are not filled with luminescent material, giving the dial a particularly refined metallic sheen in the light.
Chromalight luminescent display: The applied baton hour markers and Mercedes hands in 18-karat White Gold are filled with the innovative Chromalight material, which emits a long-lasting, even, intense blue glow in the dark.
Proven in-house calibre 3132 (COSC-certified): The highly precise automatic movement is equipped with the anti-magnetic blue Parachrom hairspring and highly effective Paraflex shock absorbers. It offers a power reserve of approximately 48 hours and outstanding reliability under extreme conditions.
Scratch-resistant Sapphire Crystal: A flat, highly transparent Sapphire Crystal protects the dial flawlessly from external influences and ensures a crystal-clear view without distraction from a date magnifier.
Sovereign water resistance (100 m / 10 ATM): The screw-down Twinlock winding crown with its double sealing system and the hermetically screwed case back reliably protect the movement from moisture and pressure.
Three-row Oyster bracelet in Oystersteel (Ref. 77200): The reference is worn on a fully satin-finished Oyster link bracelet. The Oysterlock safety folding clasp is equipped with the practical Easylink extension system, which enables quick bracelet adjustment by 5 mm.
