This 2011-launched 216570 is a previous-generation Rolex Explorer II in production until 2021 when the house released the new reference 226570. It comes with a recognisable design aesthetic and a powerful calibre, which was a complete novelty at the time of the watch's release. Yet, the watch remains one of the most underrated models in Rolex's catalogue.

The calibre 3187 was introduced with this reference. It's a superior automatic movement featuring 31 jewels, a blue Parachrom hairspring, the Paraflex shock absorbers, and 48 hours of power reserve. This timepiece comes with a distinctive black dial contrasted by luminous hour markers and hands, a bright orange hand for the second time zone, and a date aperture at three o'clock.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
