The Explorer II ref. 16570 was developed in 1989, bringing with it handful of upgrades, including the addition of the calibre 3185 and 3186 movements, an engraved rehaut on newer references, and the addition of a Polar dial, which is characterized by white luminous hour markers and hands in black surrounds. The Polar dial adds a distinct style that is unlike any other reference that had been previously released, making the used Rolex 16570 an instant collector's item. The Explorer II itself boasts roots as a spelunkers tool watch and focuses on optimal visibility in low-light conditions. As such, the case is topped with a fixed 24-hour bezel that can be read against the dedicated hand on the dial to track day and night hours as well as read a second time zone.

Clean watch, runs well, like new as described.
Watch exactly as described. Super-fast shipping. I couldn't be happier with my 16570
Everybody is a pro when dealing with Bob's watches. I have been eye-ing an Explorer for years and after finding this early 90s 16570, I pulled the trigger. When I received my used Rolex the next day I was blown away by the condition of this 27 year-old watch with zero scratches. I will buy my next Rolex, a Yacht-Master with Bob's!
Outstanding watch 21 years old but you’d think it was new. Running +1 spd, within COSC. Looks far better than the pictures on line. Came beautifully boxed. I chose Bob’s because I have no dealers anywhere near me and I wanted reliable service with no worry. I got it and am thrilled with the service and the watch. Thanks!
This was an amazing surprise much beyond my expectation of a mint condition Polar Explorer II. I had given my daughter my previous one and had hungered to get another. The watch is of the highest quality and the price compared to others including its box, papers, and so on equally superlative all for a price easily 5-600 dollars anywhere else.
