Much like the red line of text on the dial of the latest Sea-Dweller, the bright orange, arrow-shaped 24-hour hand on the latest incarnation of the Rolex Explorer II is a design element directly borrowed from the very first version of the watch from 1971. For a number of decades, this style of 24-hour hand was entirely absent from the Rolex watch catalog, during which time, the Explorer II shared a 24-hour hand design with Rolex’s GMT-Master II line of watches.However, in 2011 for its 40th anniversary, the Explorer II line received a complete makeover, both inside and out. Although the vast majority of the new reference 216570 Explorer II was completely different from the original version and classifies it as an undisputedly modern timepiece, the large, orange-colored, arrow-shaped, 24-hour hand is aesthetically almost identical to the one on the original version of the Explorer II from the early 1970s.A significant part of the allure of the Rolex GMT-Master II 126710BLRO is rooted in its vintage-inspired design elements, such as its red and blue, “Pepsi” bezel insert and its Jubilee-style bracelet. The very first Rolex GMT-Master watches from the mid-1950s were made from stainless steel and fitted with half-red, half-blue bezel inserts; however, ever since the introduction of Cerachrom (ceramic) bezels, half-red, half-blue “Pepsi” bezel inserts were only available on the 18k white gold version of Rolex’s GMT-Master II. The reference 126710 GMT-Master II marked the return of a stainless steel “Pepsi” GMT, as well as the return of the Jubilee bracelet to the GMT-Master line.

The ref. 116613 is also available with Rolex’s patented “Chromalight” lume on the dial, which offers a bright, blue glow for up to 8 continuous hours (as well as larger plots). Similar to the ref. 16613, the newer model Submariner Rolex 116613 is also available with either a blue or black dial and bezel combination. However, the Serti dials on the 116613 only come in blue or black (rather than champagne or silver), and do not feature sapphires set into the markers on the 6, 9, and 12 o’clock locations. Instead, ref. 116613 Serti dials only have 8 diamonds set in them, and feature lume-filled indexes for the 6, 9, and 12 o’clock hour markers.Both the Submariner 16613 and 116613 run on the Rolex Caliber 3135 perpetual movement with a 48-hour power reserve.
