The Explorer's Watch

Explorer

The Explorer was the result of research in extreme conditions, like equipping Hillary and Tenzing conquering the Eversest. The aim was to create the ultimate mountaineer's tool watch that could survive the roughest conditions, keeping perfect time at any Temperature and hight.

The perfect mix of steel and gold

Rolesor

The harmonious interaction of steel and gold is called Rolesor. Bezel, winding crown and center elements of the bracelet are made of 18ct yellow or everose gold. On models in Rolesor white only the bezel is in 18ct white gold and the rest in Oystersteel.

Legendary Waterproofness

Oyster Case

The Oyster case is a milestone in the history of watchmaking. Invented by Rolex in 1926, it was the world's first waterproof watch case. Bezel, caseback and winding crown are screwed watertight to the middle section. Form and function are perfectly matched - typically Rolex.

Articles prepared for you

In the right time

Rocket Science

For a brief moment, I seriously considered starting this short article with a scientific treatise on the production of carbon fibers. However, given my rather limited abilities in the natural sciences during my school days, I immediately abandoned this idea and instead turned my attention to the things that move us all on a daily basis. Watches.

The return of the 80s

Everything comes back. At some point. Even my grandmother knew that and the more mature you become, the more you realise: damn, it really is like that. When Rolex presented the GMT-Master II as a yellow gold and bicolour version on a Jubilé bracelet last year, I immediately felt something like my own personal Werthers Echte moment. Only not with gold-wrapped caramel sweets, but with the watches I knew from my childhood. And so I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the picture of TV legend Horst Tappert smiling at me from the cover of a TV magazine with a gold GMT on a Jubilee bracelet.
