The Rolex Explorer reference 114270 is a timeless and versatile watch that continues the legacy of one of Rolex's most iconic tool watches. Introduced in 2001 and produced until 2010, it features a 36mm stainless steel Oyster case, a size that has long been cherished for its classic proportions and understated elegance. The smooth bezel and brushed surfaces enhance the Explorer's utilitarian appeal, emphasizing simplicity and ruggedness. The black dial is the hallmark of the Explorer line, characterized by its clean and highly legible design. The signature 3-6-9 Arabic numerals, combined with luminous baton hour markers and Mercedes-style hands, ensure excellent visibility even in low-light environments. The use of Super-LumiNova lume allows for a bright and long-lasting glow, essential for adventurers who demand functionality in all conditions. Powering the 114270 is Rolex's in-house caliber 3130, a self-winding mechanical movement renowned for its durability, precision, and reliability. Certified as a chronometer, the caliber is equipped with a Parachrom hairspring, which provides resistance to shocks, temperature variations, and magnetism, ensuring optimal performance. With a 48-hour power reserve, the watch delivers dependable timekeeping under any circumstance. The Explorer is fitted with Rolex's robust stainless steel Oyster bracelet, featuring solid end links and a folding Oysterlock clasp for security and comfort. Water-resistant to 100 meters thanks to its screw-down crown and Twinlock system, the 114270 is designed to perform in challenging environments while maintaining its refined appearance. As the last Explorer reference to feature the traditional 36mm case before Rolex moved to larger sizes, the 114270 holds a special place among collectors and enthusiasts. Its timeless design, rich history, and reputation for reliability make it a highly sought-after piece for those who appreciate understated elegance and robust functionality. Whether exploring rugged landscapes or navigating daily life, the Rolex Explorer 114270 remains a symbol of adventure, precision, and enduring style.
