Ring Command Bezel
achieved perfection when it turned its attention to redefining the purpose and functionality of the bezel. Typically, a bezel operates independently from the internal mechanism; however, the Ring Command bezel in the Yacht-Master II regatta chronograph operates in conjunction with it. As a mechanical component linked to the movement, the bezel literally acts as the key to the programmable countdown, allowing it to be set and synchronised to the sequence of race start times. Complex in design, but simple in use, it is functionally beautiful.
White dial
The Yacht-Master II is equipped with a new dial, and new hands that are characteristic of Professional models, enhancing legibility and sharpening its aesthetic appeal. The dial now features a triangular hour marker at 12 clock and a rectangular hour marker at 6 clock for more intuitive reading of the watch. A luminescent disc on the hour hand clearly distinguishes it from the minute hand. The Yacht-Master II countdown can be programmed for a duration of between 1 and 10 minutes. The programming is memorized by the mechanism so that at a reset it returns to the previous setting. Once launched, the countdown can be synchronized on the fly to match the official race countdown.
Everose Rolesor
Gold is coveted for its lustre and nobility. Steel reinforces strength and reliability. Together, they harmoniously combine the best of their properties. A true signature, Rolesor has featured on models since the early 1930s, and was trademarked as a name in 1933. It is one of the prominent pillars of the Oyster collection.
MODEL AVAILABILITY
All watches are assembled by hand with the utmost care to ensure exceptional quality. Such high standards naturally restrict Rolex production capacity and, at times, the demand for Rolex watches outpaces this capacity.
Therefore, the availability of certain models may be limited. New watches are exclusively sold by Official Retailers, who receive regular deliveries and independently manage the allocation and sales of watches to customers.
Europe Watch is proud to be part of the worldwide network of Official Retailers and can provide information on the availability of watches.
