Rolex Yacht-Master II, 18k Yellow Gold, 44mm, Ref# 116688-0002

This stunning 44mm Rolex Yacht-Master II showcases a polished 18k yellow gold case, combining both luxury and functionality. The elegant white dial is enhanced by yellow gold-rimmed sub-dials, polished 18k yellow gold hour and minute hands with the iconic Mercedes-logo and sword shapes, all filled with luminous material for enhanced legibility. The minute hand is partially skeletonized, adding a modern touch, while the polished 18k yellow gold seconds hand adds a refined element of style. The applied polished 18k yellow gold index hour markers, also filled with luminous material, ensure clear readability. A finely printed minute/seconds track on the dial rim improves precision, while the highly legible Chromalight display emits long-lasting blue luminescence for visibility in low light.

The watch features Rolex’s patented Triplock locking crown in polished 18k yellow gold, ensuring a watertight seal similar to a submarine hatch. The polished 18k yellow gold chronograph pushers add functionality without compromising the luxurious aesthetic. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, and the solid case back ensures durability.

Key features include central hour and minute hands, a small seconds hand at 6 o’clock, a programmable countdown with mechanical memory, on-the-fly synchronization, and stop-seconds for precise time setting.

The watch is equipped with a polished 18k yellow gold bidirectional rotatable Ring Command bezel, designed with a ribbed edge for a secure grip. The blue Cerachrom bezel insert is made from ceramic, offering exceptional durability, scratch-resistance, and corrosion-resistance. Additionally, the bezel’s color remains unaffected by ultraviolet rays, preventing any fading over time. The bezel is engraved with matte-finished numbers and graduation indexes, ensuring both functionality and style.

Powering this timepiece is the Rolex Caliber 4161, a self-winding mechanical movement with 48 jewels and a 72-hour power reserve. The watch is fitted with an 18k yellow gold Oyster bracelet, featuring brushed outer links and polished center links. It secures with a folding Oysterlock safety clasp and is equipped with the patented Easylink 5 mm comfort extension link for added convenience.

This Rolex Yacht-Master II is the epitome of luxury and precision, designed for those who appreciate superior craftsmanship and timeless elegance.
