The 214270 is the 39 mm Explorer. After 2016 its 3-6-9 numerals were filled with lume and the hands lengthened (the “Mk2” dial), which fixed complaints about the original.
Who it’s for
Buyers who want a simple, rugged everyday Rolex that goes with everything.
Buying tips
- Check that the 3-6-9 numerals and lume match the year of the watch.
- Original, unpolished cases are worth more. Look for sharp case edges.
- The Explorer is one of the best-value Rolex sports watches. Compare against the Oyster Perpetual.
