Why is the Rolex Explorer I so popular? Let's take a closer look at its appeal!

The current Explorer I "Ref. 124270" was announced as a new model for 2021. The case size of the previous model was 39mm, but it has returned to 36mm. Also, as you can see from the reference, it is "Ref. 124270" instead of "Ref. 224270", so you can see that it follows "Ref. 114270".

Meanwhile, in terms of functionality, whereas the previous model used the Cal.3100 series, this model uses the Cal.3200 series, and the specs have been upgraded. There are no major changes in appearance, but the performance has definitely improved and ease of use has been improved, so this is a model that we would especially recommend to those who like simple designs and those who want to use it on a daily basis.
