In 1989, Rolex launched reference 14270, which incorporated numerous changes to the cherished Explorer, including a new case, dial, movement, sapphire crystal, only the hands remained the same. The new caliber 3000 movement has a higher beat and greater shock resistance than previous generations.

Although differing significantly from the vintage ref. 1016, ref. 14270 represents the perfect blending of modern features yet still maintains the DNA of the Explorer line. Ref. 14270 was discontinued until around 2001.
