The Rolex Yacht-Master is a popular and iconic luxury watch that was first introduced in 1992. The watch is designed specifically for yachting and sailing enthusiasts and features a durable and water-resistant construction that can withstand the rigors of life on the water.
The Rolex Yacht-Master is available in several different sizes, including a 42mm version that is a great choice for those who prefer a larger watch. The 42mm Yacht-Master is equipped with a chronometer-certified movement and a rotatable bezel with raised graduations that can be used to time yacht races.
Rolex has released a new watch, the Oyster Perpetual Yachtmaster 42, which is made of a special titanium metal called RLX Titanium. This metal is both lightweight and strong, making it perfect for sports enthusiasts who want a watch that can handle an active lifestyle. The use of RLX Titanium reduces the weight of the watch by a third compared to similar steel watches.
The Yachtsman 42 features a combination of polished, high-gloss and technical satin finishes that create a subtle blend of texture and light. The technical satin finish, with its pronounced texture, is clearly visible on the case and strap, while the crown guard and the top edges of the lugs have a shiny polished surface. The watch’s bezel is also made of ceramic and features raised and polished numerals and indexes.
The watch comes with a replica Rolex Oyster bracelet, also made of RLX titanium, with technical satin finishes on the sides of the links and on the edges of the Oyster safety clasp cover. The strap is flexible and incorporates ceramic inserts in the links for added durability.
