Pre-Owned Rolex 36mm Explorer, Black Dial, Oyster Bracelet, Ref. 124270
The Rolex Explorer was first introduced in 1953, following Sir Edmund Hillary’s successful climb of Mount Everest. It was designed specifically for exploration and mountaineering, with features like a highly legible dial, robust construction, and resistance to extreme temperatures and pressure changes. Over the years, the Explorer has undergone several updates and refinements, but it remains a popular choice among adventurers and watch enthusiasts alike.
With its 36mm stainless steel case, this watch is designed to endure both adventurous journeys and sophisticated evenings alike. The smooth bezel adds a touch of understated refinement, while the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal ensures a clear view of the remarkable black dial. The contrasting luminescent hands and hour markers, a harmonious blend of stick and Arabic numerals, not only enhance legibility in any lighting conditions but also exude an air of classic sophistication. A glance at the dial is a reminder of the artistry and precision that Rolex is renowned for. At the heart of the Explorer lies the bi-directional self-winding 3230 caliber movement with 70 hours of reserve, a testament to Rolex’s commitment to innovation and accuracy. Completing the ensemble is the stainless steel Oyster bracelet that is secured by a folding Oysterlock clasp. Whether you’re conquering new frontiers or making your mark in the boardroom, the Rolex Explorer 124270 is more than a watch – it’s a statement of your journey and a reflection of your unparalleled taste.

Rolex is recognized throughout the world not only as a brand associated with luxury, but as a watch that is both luxurious and precise. For Rolex, this hard-won and well-deserved recognition was never in doubt. The founder, Hans Wilsdorf named the company Rolex to be pronounceable in any language, as he anticipated the acclaim his company would receive due to relentless pursuit of precision and accuracy in a wristwatch. Soon after its founding, Rolex produced the first wristwatch to receive the Swiss Certificate of Chronometric Precision, which was followed rapidly by receipt of a certificate of precision from the Kew Observatory in Great Britain. From those roots Rolex built a legacy of innovation. The Oyster watch was the first waterproof and dustproof wristwatch in 1926, followed by the first self-winding Perpetual rotor. Building once again on innovation, the Datejust became the first self-winding wrist chronometer to include a date in a window on the dial. Adventurous women and men who strive to make history have chosen Rolex for their expedition, which both perpetuates the brand’s claim to precision and dependability as well as attests to its veracity. Hans Wilsdorf may have anticipated the acclaim Rolex would someday achieve, but even he might have been impressed with its success.
