Ease of Use
The Rolex Explorer is easy to equip because of the deployment buckle clasp; it’s possible to undo the clasp with only one hand. Despite being efficiently removable, the clasp will not accidentally become undone on its own. The watch is secured enough to remain on the owner’s wrist and is quite fitting at 8 inches of maximum bracelet length. The date windows is conveniently placed by the 3 o’clock aperture and is also luminescent and can be seen under dim lighting. The same can be said for the inner markings; white inlay hour markers as well as the hands. The bezel is made of stainless steel, just like most of the body and has a 24 hour display.
Minor Disadvantages
The bevel is cannot be rotated and the screw is quite close to the main body, which makes it slightly difficult to pull when adjusting the time. It is forgivable, in a way, since the Rolex Explorer is self winding and has a chronometer movement. The time usually gets delayed more than it advances after three weeks of usage or more. The GMT 2nd Time Zone feature makes a useful addition for constant travellers. There is no switch for a backlight, since there is no backlight equipped in the watch at all. While it might be a downside for some people, it’s actually not at all a bother since the dial’s markings and hands are luminescent enough. The dial reflects much light and allows the markings and hands to slightly glow in the dark so there’s basically no need for lighting. The wrist size accommodation of the Explorer is quite thick; for smaller wrists, the watch can be adjusted with help from a watchmaker or staff member from luxury watch stores.
Conclusion
The Rolex Explorer is quite simple in appearance and is arguably affordable. Despite being a product of the worldwide known Rolex watch company, the Explorer can be bought at roughly $6,000+. Simple and affordable, this watch model is ideal for people seeking a durable, classic and attractive mens watch. It is practical not only because of its function but also because of its lightweight physique and overall style.
