Rolex Explorer II 226570-0001 is a 42 mm steel GMT watch built for orientation in low light or continuous daylight. The case measures 42 mm across and carries a fixed, graduated bezel paired with a screw-down crown. A sapphire crystal with a Cyclops lens sits over the date. Inside is the calibre 3285, a self-winding movement with GMT function and a power reserve of approximately 70 hours; Rolex certifies it as a Superlative Chronometer. The white dial has luminous hands and indices, and an orange hand tracks the second time zone alongside the central seconds and date. The steel Oyster bracelet closes with a folding Oysterlock safety clasp with a comfort extension link. The screw-down crown helps hold the case to its 100 metre water resistance rating.
