It's not as the explorer has a mercedes hour hand and no PCL. i think it's an oyster perpetual but need the model number as have never seen one with the arabic numbers and black face. Also want to know if it's 34 or 36mm.

There was a Rolex that was released only to China that resembled the Exp, but it was a DJ. I think that this may be it.

Wow, that watch looks so similar to the Explorer I. It looks like they polished the lugs, got rid of "Explorer," then added "Oyster Perpetual" right below the Rolex logo.

As noted above it is the 36mm Oyster Perpetual 116000 released in 2008. But be aware that there are two versions of the 116000. The "regular" version you will see most everywhere has PINK colored indices. The pink color is very noticeable. There is a much rarer Japan only model 116000 with WHITE indices. Everything else being the same. Good luck in your search.
