The Yacht-Master is Rolex’s regatta line, the sports watch allowed precious metals and jewels without apology. Its bidirectional bezel and softened case make it the Submariner’s glamorous sibling.

Rolex's Yacht-Master 42, reference 226627, in 42mm titanium. Unworn with production year 2026, shown in the exact reference and dial configuration on offer.

Fun fact: The Oyster case of 1926 was the first waterproof watch case, and every Rolex sport model still descends from it.

The collection

Yacht-Master

Rolex's nautical line, a 60-minute bezel that turns in both directions

The Yacht-Master arrived in 1992, first in 18 kt yellow gold, as a nautical watch rather than a divers' watch. Its 60-minute graduated bezel turns in both directions for timing intervals, the numerals and graduations raised and polished against a matte sand-blasted ground, and the case is waterproof to 100 metres. Rolex introduced the Rolesium version, an Oystersteel case and bracelet paired with platinum, in 1999, fitted the line with the Oysterflex bracelet in 2015 and added a Yacht-Master 42 in RLX titanium in 2023. Three sizes are catalogued today, in gold alloys, in Oystersteel combined with platinum or Everose gold and in RLX titanium, on the Oyster bracelet or Oysterflex depending on the reference.
