About this watch

The Rolex Explorer 114270-0001 embodies luxury, reliability, and timeless elegance. With its rich history dating back to 1953, this iconic watch was designed for adventurers and explorers who required a durable and precise timepiece. The model we're focusing on today boasts a classic yet modern design with a 36mm case diameter, stainless steel casing, and black dial featuring Arabic numerals at 3, 6, and 9.
