Explorer Ii 1655

The Rolex Explorer II 1655, a.k.a. the "Steve McQueen," though fun fact—he never actually wore one, first hit the scene in 1971, built tough for cave explorers who, you know, needed to tell day from night underground, wild right. It’s got that unmistakable orange 24-hour hand and loads of vintage character collectors chase today. At Tropical Watch, sourcing stunning examples of the Explorer II 1655 is just kind of what we love doing.
