First created for sailors who needed a reliable watch that looked good off the boat too, the Yacht-Master has always done things a little differently. This model pairs stainless steel with platinum – an exclusive combo within the lineup, framing a slate grey sunray dial accented by an ice-blue seconds hand for a subtle pop of cool. Whether you’re dockside or desk-bound, this piece strikes the right balance.
Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. The bidirectional platinum bezel features raised high-polished numerals against a sandblasted surface, offering both grip and gleam. Securing the fit is a brushed stainless steel Oyster bracelet with polished center links. It also has the signature Rolex Easylink extension, letting you make quick strap adjustments without using any tool.
Functions include hours, minutes, date, and event timing. The 60-minute graduated bezel is originally designed for timing sailing maneuvers like countdowns before a regatta start, but it can also be used for everyday moments – like timing a workout, tracking a coffee break, or pacing a presentation without pulling out your phone. It also features luminous hands and hour markers, keeping legibility sharp even after sunset.
Comes as a full set, double-boxed, including the watch pillow, warranty card, warranty wallet, booklet in a holder, Yacht Master manual, and the green and white Rolex hang tags.
This Yacht-Master sets itself apart from the normal crowd. It is a standout pick for collectors who want something a little different from the usual sports lineup – sharp enough for daily wear, but still built for weekends on the water.
