About the Explorer

Introduced: 1953

The Rolex Explorer embodies the spirit of exploration and adventure. Created in 1953 to commemorate the successful ascent of Mount Everest by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, the Explorer represents the quintessential tool watch - simple, robust, and utterly reliable.

With its clean black dial, distinctive 3-6-9 numeral layout, and time-only function, the Explorer strips away all non-essential elements to focus purely on accuracy and legibility. It's a watch built for those who push boundaries and explore the unknown.
