Shop straps for Rolex Explorer 39mm reference 214270
Explorer
Released in 1953, the Rolex Explorer is designed with adventure in mind. A pre-explorer variant (Ref. 6098) accompanied Sir Edmund Hillary, Brig. Gen. Sir John Hunt, and Sherpa Tensing, G.M to the top of Mt. Everest. While any number of modern watches could do this expedition today, this was not the case in 1953. Rolex equipped the ref. 6098 (and subsequent Explorer models) with an incredibly strong case, a caliber A.296 specially lubricated to withstand extreme changes in temperature, and a hyper-legible dial. This watch was purpose-built for mountaineering, and it held up against perhaps the most demanding real-world test: Mt. Everest.
