Bidirectional Rotatable Bezel
The Yacht-Master’s bidirectional rotatable 60-minute graduated bezel is made of precious materials. The raised polished numerals and graduations stand out clearly against a matt, sand-blasted background.
Black dial
Like all Rolex Professional watches, the Yacht-Master 42 offers exceptional legibility in all circumstances, and especially in the dark, thanks to its Chromalight display. The broad hands and hour markers in simple shapes – triangles, circles, rectangles – are filled with a luminescent material emitting a long-lasting glow.
18 ct white gold
By operating its own exclusive foundry, Rolex has the unrivalled ability to cast the highest quality 18 ct gold alloys. According to the proportion of silver, copper, platinum or palladium added, different types of 18 ct gold are obtained: yellow, pink or white. They are made with only the purest metals and meticulously inspected in an in-house laboratory with state-of-the-art equipment, before the gold is formed and shaped with the same painstaking attention to quality. Rolex's commitment to excellence begins at the source.
Availability of the Model
All Rolex wristwatches are crafted by hand with the highest level of care and attention to detail in order to meet the brand's high quality standards. It goes without saying that this level of care affects Rolex's ability to produce watches in high numbers, which means that high demand can affect the availability of certain Models.
The new Rolex wristwatches are only available from official retailers. These dealers are supplied regularly and can decide for themselves which customers they sell which watch to.
Wempe is proud to be part of the worldwide network of official Rolex retailers, as such we can let you know about the availability of the various Models.
