In these often harsh and unfamiliar environments, distinguishing day from night can become impossible. For speleologists, who spend days at a time in darkness, or polar expeditions travelling under the midnight sun or through endless night, the Explorer II, with its 24-hour display, is an essential part of their equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rolex-layout-v7 rolex-bg-beige rolex-pt\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"rolex-global-grid rolex-img-component\"\u003e\n        \u003cpicture class=\"s-3-e-13 md-s-3-e-13 sm-s-2-e-8\"\u003e\n            \u003csource srcset=\"https:\/\/rolex-bespoke.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/rolexv7\/images\/c2026\/explorer-ii\/rolex-explorer-ii-designed-for-exploration-m226570-0001-portrait.webp\" media=\"(max-width:768px)\"\u003e\n            \u003csource srcset=\"https:\/\/rolex-bespoke.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/rolexv7\/images\/c2026\/explorer-ii\/rolex-explorer-ii-designed-for-exploration-m226570-0001-landscape.webp\" media=\"(min-width:768px)\"\u003e\n            \u003cimg alt=\"Designed for exploration\" title=\"Designed for exploration\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/source\u003e\u003c\/picture\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"rolex-body-text-component rolex-global-grid rolex-pt rolex-pb\"\u003e\n        \u003cdiv class=\"rolex-body-text s-5-e-11 md-s-4-e-12 sm-s-2-e-8\"\u003e\n            \u003ch2 class=\"rolex-headline50 rolex-pb-20 rolex-text-brown\"\u003eDesigned for exploration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n            \u003cp class=\"rolex-body20light\"\u003eThe Explorer II was introduced in 1971 and, in the same spirit as the Explorer, perpetuates the privileged relationship Rolex enjoys with exploration.
