Pre-owned Rolex Explorer 36 ref 124273 (2011 – 2026) is important to Rolex’s history. When it debuted at Watches and Wonders 2021, this model was the first Explorer to sport a steel and gold finish patented by Rolex as “Yellow Rolesor.” Previously, the practical mountaineer’s tool watch was only produced in steel. By adding gold to the mix, Rolex has opened the series to a broader range of collectors, from adventurous mountain climbers to small business owners and high-power CEOs. Features include a standard 36mm waterproof Oyster case, a matching three-link Oyster bracelet, and a sharp black dial decorated with gold-trimmed Chromalight hour markers and hands. While this watch certainly exudes the prestige and luxury of the exclusive Rolex brand, it offers the durability needed to scale the world’s tallest mountains. Shop Rolex Explorer 36 Collection
