The combination of the white gold case, black dial with large luminous markers and matte black cerachrom bezel gives this impressive 42 mm. diameter watch a distinctly monochrome black and white aesthetic, quite unusual among Rolex models. Of course, in addition to its great looks, the Yacht-Master is also a serious piece of timing equipment for use in even the most challenging of conditions. The bidirectional 60-minute calibrated bezel has been provided with bold numerals and divisions which allow the wearer to time the sailing time between two fixed points for example. For enhanced readability at all times of the night or day, the large bold hour markers and hands are filled with a strongly luminescent material with a long-lasting glow. The Yacht-Master’s patented new black ‘Oysterflex’ bracelet is practical and secure and gives the model a very sporting wrist presence. The 18k white gold ‘Oysterlock’ deployant safety clasp features the ‘Glidelock’ extension adjustment system, designed and patented by Rolex, it allows the wearer to extend the size of the clasp by up to 15 mm. in small increments without the need for any tools. Highly sought after in the market and making a rare appearance at auction, the present watch presents the opportunity to obtain one of the contemporary Rolex classics without delay.The white gold Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master was introduced in 2019 as a completely new Rolex reference.
