A 2021 Rolex Yacht-Master ref. 116622 automatic wristwatch in Oystersteel with a platinum rotatable graduated bezel, rhodium dark slate dial with luminous dot hour markers, blue seconds hand, date display, and a polished and brushed Oyster bracelet with signed Oysterlock deployant clasp. 40mm case; full set with original box and warranty card; 9.5/10 condition.

The Rolex Yacht-Master 40 ref. 116622 in Oystersteel and platinum is one of the cleanest and most refined configurations in the Yacht-Master lineup. The platinum graduated bezel gives the watch a more elevated look than a standard steel sport watch, while the rhodium / dark slate dial and blue seconds hand add contrast without making the design loud.

This example features a 40mm Oystersteel case, platinum bidirectional rotatable graduated bezel, sapphire crystal with Cyclops date magnifier, and a polished and brushed Oyster bracelet with Rolex Oysterlock safety clasp. The rhodium / dark slate dial is fitted with luminous dot and baton hour markers, Mercedes hands, and the signature blue seconds hand associated with this configuration.

Offered as a full set with original box and warranty card dated 2021, this example is presented in 9.5/10 near-mint condition

The Rolex Yacht-Master was introduced in 1992 as a more refined nautical sport watch within the Rolex lineup. Unlike the Submariner, which has a more tool-watch-driven design, the Yacht-Master uses a polished case profile, precious-metal bezel, and dressier sport-luxury character.

The ref. 116622 is the 40mm Oystersteel and platinum Yacht-Master powered by the Rolex caliber 3135 automatic movement. Its platinum bezel, rhodium / dark slate dial, blue seconds hand, and Oyster bracelet give it a distinctive position within the Rolex sport watch family: understated, wearable, and more refined than a typical all-steel sports model.
