The Rolex Yacht-Master 40mm 126622-0001 is an authentic Swiss-made luxury watch that features a bidirectional rotating bezel made with precious materials. The raised polished numerals and graduations stand out clearly against a matt, sand-blasted background. This functional bezel – which allows the wearer to calculate, for example, the sailing time between two buoys – is also a key component in the model’s distinctive visual identity.
Thanks to its Chromalight display, which is a feature of all Rolex Professional watches, the Yacht-Master 40 provides great legibility in all lighting conditions, notably at night. The simple hour markers, such as triangles, circles, and rectangles, and the large hands are filled with a luminescent material that emits long-lasting illumination.
Many Rolex watches are available with the now-legendary combination of yellow, white, or Everose gold and steel known as Rolesor, but Rolesium is a creation specific to the Yacht-Master. The bezel of the Rolesium versions is made of platinum, which gives it a silvery whiteness and bright luminosity for an unmistakable sense of luxury.
