Rolex Explorer II


Setting the Rolex Explorer II 24-hour hand


I certainly love my Rolex watch but I couldn’t really understand how to set the red 24-hour hand on my new watch from the information in the Rolex manual however; by trial and error I’ve found it is fairly easy.

There are 4 positions the stem can be in:

Closed (ready to wear and the only waterproof position!)

Position 1 - used to manually wind your watch

Position 2 - Quickset, used to quickly move the hour hand as well as the date (24-Hour Hand doesn't move)

Position 3 - used to set the minute hand and 24-Hour Hand (Hour hand moves as well but ignore that for the moment)

First you need to check that the date is displayed correctly on your Rolex Explorer II and, if not, set it by pulling the crown out to the first stop and turning it until you have the correct date. The crown can be turned either clockwise or counter-clockwise to increase or decrease the date.

Next set the 24-hour hand to the correct hour by pulling the crown out to the last stop (position 3) and adjusting as needed.

Finally, with the crown at Position 2 adjust the regular hour hand.
Your Rolex Explorer should be good to go.

J'espère que ça vous será utile.
