Draped in a black PVD coating across both the 40mm Oystersteel case and matching Oyster bracelet, this Explorer cuts a distinctly bold profile. The monobloc middle case is fitted with a screw-down case back and screw-down winding crown, while a smooth bezel and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal complete the exterior. The Folding Oysterlock safety clasp features an Easylink 5mm comfort extension link for a precise fit on the wrist.
The black dial is equipped with Rolex's Chromalight display, delivering long-lasting blue luminescence for exceptional legibility in low-light conditions. Powering the watch is Calibre 3230 — a self-winding mechanical movement with bidirectional winding via a Perpetual rotor, a paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers, a precision rating of -2/+2 seconds per day after casing, and a power reserve of approximately 70 hours.
This example is offered with its 2023 Rolex Card and original Rolex box, reference 224270-0001.
