Rolex Yachtmaster Luxury Watches
Rolex Yachtmaster Luxury Watches
The Rolex Yachtmaster Luxury Watches are a redux of the Rolex Submariner. It was originally intended to be a new Submariner, but the company decided to keep the Submariner as it was, because it liked its look. The Rolex Yacht-Master also served as a prototype for the Rolex Daytona.
Cerachrom bezel inserts
The latest addition to the Yachtmaster collection is the Cerachrom bezel insert. Introduced in 2012 at Baselworld, this new material embodies a unique blue hue. It is also made from high-technology ceramic and features a knurled edge. Unlike earlier models, the Cerachrom bezel is not made of metal.
Rolex first used the Cerachrom material for bezel inserts on its GMT-Master II (116710BLNR) model. Up until then, the brand had been using aluminum bezels, which were susceptible to scratches and fading over time. They also suffered from UV rays, which can cause the metal to lose its original colour.
The Cerachrom bezel inserts on Rolex Yachtmaster luxury watches are made of hard ceramic material and are scratch and corrosion-resistant. The Cerachrom bezel inserts are sandblasted and have an elegant matte finish. This gives the watch a technical, contemporary look. It also serves as a backdrop for the raised black numerals marking the 0-60 minutes.
The Cerachrom bezel inserts on Rolexes have a luminous blue hue that glows in the dark. The Rolexes are powered by Caliber 3135, which has a 48-hour power reserve. The Cerachrom bezel inserts on a Rolex Yachtmaster luxury watch are an excellent choice for those who want to be visible underwater.
Cerachrom bezel inserts on Rolexe Yachtmaster luxury watches add a new level of sophistication and distinction. Cerachrom bezels have been a popular choice for the bezels of luxury timepieces for the last decade. While they are lightweight and scratch-resistant, they are also corrosion and heat-resistant.
A ceramic bezel insert is an improvement over an aluminum insert. While aluminum inserts have long served Rolex, they are susceptible to fading and deterioration. Saltwater, friction, and sunlight can also cause them to fade. A ceramic insert, by contrast, is scratch-resistant and will not show signs of age.
Bakelite was used to replace the Bakelite insert on Rolex Yachtmaster luxury watches until the 1960s. However, the material was prone to cracking and fading, especially in tropical climates. The problem was even worse in the case of the ref. 6542 model had luminous radium filled 24 hour numerals, which was only becoming dangerous when the Atomic Energy Commission ordered Rolex to replace the Bakelite insert with a new aluminum one.
Everose gold dial
The 2016 edition of the Rolex Yacht-Master is made with a striking Everose gold dial, adding an elegant touch to the classic analogue design. It’s as at home in an elegant yacht club lounge as it is on the open sea. Whether you’re heading to a party or simply need a timepiece to tell the time, the Everose gold dial is the perfect choice.
The Everose gold dial is made of 18-karat pink gold, which is a proprietary alloy that Rolex has patented. This mix of copper and gold also contains a touch of platinum, which acts as a bonding agent. This ensures the pinkish tone of the metal is preserved for years to come.
Although the Everose gold dial is available only in limited models, it makes for a luxurious and eye-catching timepiece. This particular gold is used on the index hour markers, the Rolex logo and the hands. This color combination is popular with both men and women, and is seen on many celebrities.
If you’re the type of woman who likes to travel on a regular basis, then an Everose watch is the perfect companion. Its black and brown bezel and warm pink alloy makes it the perfect luxury companion for frequent flyers and pilots alike. This watch will be your trusted companion for years to come.
While the Rolex Yacht-Master has long been in demand, the price is rising along with its popularity. In May 2020, the Everose gold ref. 268655 is the most popular model and has gained 77%. The Oysterflex bracelet, with internal metal supports, is a more comfortable fit.
For a more affordable alternative, look at the Rolex Yacht-Master II ref. 168622, which is a 37-mm model. It features a caliber 3235 movement. The case is made of 18-karat white gold. The bezel features a black Cerachrom ceramic inlay. The watch is paired with an Everose gold oyster bracelet. It costs upwards of 20,000 USD.
The Everose gold dial is a timeless choice. This timepiece is made for those who love to race on the water. As a precision instrument, it can measure race time down to fractions of a second. If you’re a casual watch lover, however, you can use this luxury timepiece in the same way as other Rolex watches.
42mm case size
Throughout the decades, Rolex has offered the Yacht-Master in many different case sizes. While 29mm and 35mm cases are no longer made, the 42mm case is still available. This new case size allows customers to select from different bezel materials, which depend on the case’s metal material.
The 42mm Rolex Yacht-Master II features an 18ct white gold case and Cerachrom inlay in the bezel, allowing for accurate tracking of elapsed time. This particular model also boasts one of the most popular features of the Rolex Yachtmaster series, the Oysterflex bracelet. These watches feature flexible metal inserts that make it easy for the wrist to stretch and move.
Another major upgrade of the Yacht-Master is the new Caliber 3235 movement. This movement is now more accurate than ever and offers up to 70 hours of power reserve. The 42mm case size is another notable feature. It also features a bidirectional rotatable bezel that has a 60-minute graduated Cerachrom insert. The raised numerals and graduations are made of ceramic and are molded into the case.
The case-making process on the 42mm model is improved and modernized. The new Yacht-Master 42 also features an Oysterflex bracelet with an 18k yellow gold folding safety clasp. The new Yacht-Master 42 retails for $28,300. The price is quite high, but the watch’s high-quality features make it worth every penny.
The Yacht-Master line was introduced in 1992 and is now one of the most popular sports watches in the Rolex collection. The first model was in 18-karat yellow gold. Since then, the brand has expanded the Yacht-Master collection to include different case sizes and materials. This line of watches is now one of the most diverse and customizable of Rolex’s sports watch collections.
The 44mm Oyster case of the Rolex Yacht-Master II is the most popular model in the line. It features a running seconds sub-dial, a red chronograph hand that can fly back to its starting position when in motion, and twelve square lume-filled hour markers. The watch also has two of Rolex’s most advanced movements, the Chronograph and the GMT-Master II. Both of these movements have mechanical memory and a 72-hour power reserve.
The Yacht-Master has undergone many transformations since it was first introduced. In its first year, it resembled the Submariner but dressed it in a solid gold case, which seemed at odds with its professional dive watch function. The company later changed the water-resistance to 100 metres and omitted the luminous dot on the bezel.
The Yacht-Master collection is divided into two families: the original Yacht-Master and the Yacht-Master II. The original Yacht-Master is a sports watch and the Yacht-Master II is a luxury watch for competitive sailors. Both models are priced in the five-digit range.
