The Rolex Explorer II 16570, affectionately known as the “Polar” due to its distinctive lustrous white dial, is a vintage marvel that originates from the year 2004, boasting the highly desirable "no holes" case design. This characteristic feature that sets it apart is the smooth, uninterrupted design of the lugs without any visible holes, making it a coveted model amongst watch enthusiasts all over the world.
Rolex first introduced the Explorer line back in the dynamic era of the 1970s, setting a new benchmark in luxury timepieces.

But it was with this particular model, the 16570, that Rolex managed to strike gold, capturing the perfect blend of style, functionality, and timeless elegance.
