Wear a smartwatch
with your Rolex Explorer

Smartlet is compatible with the Rolex Explorer. Lug width: 19mm / 20mm / 21mm - natively supported with no adapter. Installation uses the standard spring-bar system. No modification to the watch required. Fully reversible in seconds.

The Explorer was worn by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay on the first ascent of Everest in 1953. The Explorer II was designed for cave explorers and polar expeditions. Both are the most legible watches Rolex makes: clean dials, bold numerals, zero clutter. Smartlet replaces your Explorer strap and clips your Garmin Fenix or Apple Watch onto the same wrist. The explorer's tools, both analogue and digital.
