Editor’s note: Right off the bat, let us confirm that Luke Hemsworth is in fact, a legend. Westworld Season 1 is among the best single series of television ever created, and he was in it. Also, he is a great deal wealthier and more successful than me, just in general. So, Luke, keep doing what you’re doing But of the Hemsworth brothers, he is substantially the lesser known. It’s the same for the Rolex Explorer II ref. 216570. Within the Rolex Professional Collection, references you can actually get your hands on are few and far between. And this model is one of them, roughly speaking. That said, they’re hardly in the shop window, so this is all said with a degree of reasonableness and caution. Why? It’s simple. There just aren’t as many people out there who want one on their wrist. And this is where things get a little more opaque. For such a striking looking watch, with an approachable 42mm case, a wide open dial and the electrifying shock of orange that is the GMT-hand, there seems little empirical logic behind its relative availability.
