A Rolex Explorer II Watch, Stainless Steel on a White Dial

Model number- 16570

Year- 2004

Case Size- 40mm

Movement- Automatic

Warranty- 12-Month WLC Warranty

Original Rolex Paperwork

Boxed & Certified

A Rolex Explorer II reference 16570 in stainless steel, presented with the highly sought-after white “Polar” dial and classic 40mm Oyster case. The fixed 24-hour engraved bezel and distinctive red GMT hand reinforce its tool-watch heritage, originally designed for explorers operating in extreme environments. The crisp black-outlined hour markers and Mercedes hands provide excellent contrast against the white dial, creating one of the most recognisable sports Rolex configurations of the modern era.

Powered by the Rolex calibre 3185 automatic movement, this model offers dual time zone functionality and a date display at 3 o’clock, combining practicality with proven durability. As a Superlative Chronometer, it delivers dependable precision, while the slimmer case proportions of the 16570 reference continue to appeal to collectors who favour the classic five-digit aesthetic.

Dated 2004 and presented in immaculate condition, this example is supplied with its original Rolex paperwork, boxed and certified, and includes a 12-month WLC warranty. Discontinued references such as the 16570 have shown sustained collector demand, particularly in Polar dial form, supporting long-term desirability and strong investment potential within the Rolex sports range.
