To ensure the precision and reliability of its timepieces, Rolex submits each watch after assembly to a stringent series of tests.

The five-year guarantee which applies to all Rolex models is coupled with the green seal, a symbol of its status as a Superlative Chronometer. This exclusive designation attests that the watch has successfully undergone a series of specific final controls by Rolex in its own laboratories according to its own criteria, in addition to the official COSC certification of its movement.

24-Hour Bezel
The Explorer II is equipped with an additional 24-hour display; a dedicated hand circles the dial in 24 hours rather than the usual 12, pointing to a fixed bezel with 24 hour graduations. This function enables the wearer to distinguish the hours of the day from the hours of the night, an essential feature for those who venture into environments where darkness reigns supreme – such as in the depths of caves, or where the sun never sets – like the polar regions in summer.
White dial
The Explorer II features a date display, an additional orange 24-hour hand and a fixed bezel with 24-hour graduations, enabling day to be distinguished from night. It became the watch of choice for speleologists, volcanologists and polar explorers. Its hour markers and hands feature a highly-legible Chromalight display with long-lasting blue luminescence.
Oystersteel
Rolex uses Oystersteel for its steel watch cases. Specially developed by the brand, Oystersteel belongs to the 904L steel family, alloys most commonly used in high-technology and in the aerospace and chemical industries, where maximum resistance to corrosion is essential. Oystersteel is extremely resistant, offers an exceptional finish once polished and maintains its beauty even in the harshest environments.
Disponibilité des modèles
Toutes les montres Rolex sont assemblées à la main avec un soin extrême pour répondre aux standards de qualité élevés de la marque. Un tel niveau d’exigence restreint naturellement les capacités de production de Rolex.
C’est pourquoi la disponibilité de certains modèles Rolex peut être limitée. Les nouvelles montres Rolex sont disponibles exclusivement auprès des détaillants officiels, qui sont régulièrement approvisionnés et gèrent de manière indépendante l’attribution des montres à la clientèle.
Bijouterie Italienne a l’honneur de faire partie du réseau mondial de détaillants officiels Rolex et pourra vous renseigner sur la disponibilité des différents modèles.
