The Clean Factory has released its latest creation, the 226570 Explorer II, available in both black and white dials. This watch stands out primarily due to its movement, the DD3285, which shares a design with the 126710 but is crafted in a larger size for the 226570 model.
One of the key aspects of this replica is its attention to detail in terms of the date position. Unlike most replicas on the market that have incorrect date placements, this model has a correctly positioned date, thanks to the exclusive development of a larger movement tailored for the Explorer II by the Dandong movement factory, after over a year of persuasion by Clean.
Examining the differences between the 226570 and the 216570, enthusiasts will note significant changes. The size remains consistent at 42mm, but there are notable variations in the case, hands, and bezel font thickness. The black dial version retains the slimmer bezel font typical of older models due to its production year, while the white dial reflects the bolder font style of the 2023 release.
The Explorer II has always been a distinctive piece within the entire Rolex lineup, a rarity that until now lacked a near-perfect replica version. Clean Factory’s dedication to innovation and quality is evident in this impressive watch, and we look forward to more groundbreaking releases from them in the future.
