These earliest Explorer models were provided by Rolex for testing on the expedition that saw Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay conquer Mt. Everest on May 29, 1953. While the Explorer has been in production since 1953, it took a few years for Rolex to land on the core design that we know today. After multiple different models, the 214270, launched in 2010, upped the size from 36mm to 39mm, added solid end links to the Oyster bracelet, and updated the movement to the modern caliber 3132. This reference has also been updated in 2016.
