The new Explorer with the reference 224270 appears with a case diameter of 40 mm, replacing the well-known predecessor in the 39 mm version. The simple and characteristic black dial with the numbers 3,6 and 9 remains. As an innovation, in addition to the hands and indices, the numbers 3, 6 and 9 are now also coated with Chromalight and thus guarantee perfect readability. The blue luminous material has a particularly long-lasting luminosity.
The horns, bracelet and clasp have a simple, satin finish. The Explorer's smooth, polished bezel still stands out. It gives the timepiece a certain elegance and highlights its appearance. The Swiss luxury watch manufacturer uses a specially developed type of stainless steel to produce its watches. It is “904L stainless steel” and is characterized by its corrosion resistance. When polished, the so-called Oystersteel acquires a unique shine that does not lose its charisma even under extreme conditions. The Explorer is equipped with the sporty three-row Oyster bracelet, which is robust and comfortable to wear. The Oysterlock clasp prevents the clasp from being opened accidentally thanks to its safety mechanism. Thanks to the Easy Link extension system, the bracelet can be easily adjusted by the wearer by around 5 mm. The screw-down Twinlock winding crown with a double sealing system ensures a water resistance of 100 m.
The sporty watch is powered by the Rolex manufacture movement 3230 with a power reserve of 70 hours. Due to the high precision requirements, the watch may have a maximum deviation of -2/+2 seconds per day. The functions are reduced to the essentials and the hour, minute and second hands are in the center. The Explorer 40 is ideal as a durable and versatile everyday watch and fits perfectly into the Explorer collection.
