About Explorer I
As the name of the explorer, it is a model developed for explorers aiming for unexplored lands. It was born in 1953, the same year as the announcement of the "Submariner," which is one of the most popular Rolex watches. Since then, many brave explorers and mountaineers have worn the Explorer I to show its reliability in real-world harsh environments.
With its durability and visibility that can withstand use in harsh environments, and the simplest and neat design of the professional sports Rolex, it is one of the most popular in the Rolex collection.

High-precision original movement
The movement of a general wristwatch uses a speed governor that directly touches the beard fern. However, Explorer I uses a speed governor called "Free Sprang" that does not touch the beard fern. By adopting the free sprung, the watch does not go out of order due to the impact of dropping, unlike the conventional wristwatch.
In addition, it is equipped with a uniquely developed seismic device called "Paraflex Shock Absorber" that has higher shock absorption capacity than conventional seismic springs, and is robust enough to withstand harsh environments and keeps time accurately. It has precision. It is a model that is gaining popularity from a wide range of generations because there is little concern about breakdowns.

Simple and versatile design
The Explorer I is a sports Rolex model but features a simple design. The case diameter of the current model "Ref.124270" is 36 mm, and it can be worn by a wide range of people regardless of gender.
The index is a simple design that combines a black dial with 3/6/9 Arabic numerals and bars. With a highly visible design, it is possible to accurately determine the time in any situation. The design, which pursues the original functionality of the watch by removing unnecessary decorations and checking the time, has remained unchanged even now, more than 60 years after its birth.

High practicality with repeated improvements is also attractive
The design itself hasn't changed much since its inception, but small features are constantly being improved. In 1960, it was equipped with a free sprung type movement with excellent impact resistance and stability. In 1990, a model equipped with the "Cal 3000" with a high-beat movement frequency was announced.
Recently, in 2016, Chromalight Luminous, which continues to emit light for a long time, was adopted for the 3/6/9 index, greatly improving visibility at night and in the dark. One of the attractions of Explorer is that it continues to make many small improvements to improve its practicality.
