Tested on Mount Everest
The Rolex Explorer was inspired by the first successful climb of Mount Everest. Rolex tested its watches on real expeditions, making the Explorer a true tool for those who dare to go further. Its clear black dial and tough steel case made it a favourite for climbers and travellers.

The Classic
While the Explorer’s look has stayed classic, its technology has improved. Early models were 36mm, however, now you can choose from 36mm, 39mm or the new 40mm Explorer. Each generation brings stronger steel, better water resistance and more accurate movements.

Oystersteel Case
The 36mm Explorer is the purest version, loved for its simple black dial, glowing markers and strong Oystersteel case. It is perfect for daily wear and tough enough for any adventure.

Explorer 40
In 2023, Rolex launched the Explorer 40, offering a larger 40mm case for those who want a bolder look. It keeps the classic Explorer style but brings a modern presence to the wrist.
