Pre-owned Rolex Yacht-Master ref. 116622 with original box and papers. Recognized for its striking aesthetics, robust functionality, and heritage linked with Rolex's longstanding affiliation with the world of sailing, this model is a testament to the brand's dedication to impeccable design and craftsmanship. The Yacht-Master uses Rolesium, and this is when rugged stainless steel and ultra-precious platinum meet on a Rolex watch. The case and bracelet are made of 904L stainless steel, but the bezel of the watch is actually made completely in platinum. While both are white metals, platinum gets a completely unique sheen compared to steel and thus creates a discreet contrast. The use of platinum is also proof of the fact that this model is positioned more as a luxury sports watch. Yacht-Master dial prototypes first appeared in the 1960s. But the inaugural production model didn’t make its debut until the early 1990s. That said, the brand has been present in the world of sailing for decades. The release of the Rolex Yacht-Master 116622 in 2012 marked a significant milestone in the Yacht-Master's timeline.
