Pre-Owned Rolex Yacht-Master Watches

Rumoured to be a replacement for the Submariner that was considered too dramatic a change right at the last minute, the Yacht-Master was designed to be a more elegant imagining of the classic diver's watch. The sculpted cases and sparkling dials are the perfect combination for a summer trip to the Mediterranean.

Rolex Yacht-Master Watches

Since its introduction in 1992, the Rolex Yacht-Master series has become one of the most iconic collections within the luxury sports watch genre. Its blend of timeless design and rich history has elevated the Yacht-Master series to a symbol of sophistication and elegance.

The name Yacht-Master was actually first used on a Rolex watch in the 1960s but this was confined to several prototype chronograph models that closely resembled a Daytona. The name was abandoned, only to resurface decades later on a completely different watch.

Since its release, the Rolex Yacht-Master has undergone several evolutions, each showcasing Rolex's unwavering commitment to innovation and excellence. From the early models adorned with 18k yellow gold and platinum to the latest advancements in materials and technology, the Rolex Yacht-Master continues to redefine luxury watchmaking.

The Rolex Yacht-Master’s close association with the sea and yachting gives it a unique charm. Built to withstand the rigours of the ocean, the Yacht-Master, is the perfect companion for professional sailors and seafaring enthusiasts, offering them a reliable tool watch without compromising on style. Indeed, the watch was conceived as a more luxurious alternative to the trusty Submariner.

The Yacht-Master is a masterpiece that stands out with its unique features and exceptional craftsmanship. One such feature is its graduated bidirectional rotatable bezel, crafted from ceramic, platinum or gold. It enables the wearer to measure elapsed time with ease when navigating the world’s oceans. This not only ensures accurate timekeeping but also adds a touch of elegance to the watch.

Available in three case sizes—37, 40 and 42mm—and in various precious metals from18k yellow, white and Everose gold, to Everose Rolesor and Rolesium versions, the Yacht-Master is unique in the world of Rolex professional watches. An elegant watch with a sporty character, it was the first Rolex to be paired with a rubber Oysterflex bracelet in 2015.

In 2023, Rolex unveiled a new Yacht-Master 42 in RLX titanium. This marked the first time Rolex produced a Yacht-Master in this lightweight corrosion-resistant metal, making it a notable addition to the collection. It was even trialled on hugely successful British sailor and helmsman Sir Ben Ainslie before its release to ensure it was up to scratch.

The Rolex Yacht-Master, a symbol of luxury and sophistication, is a favourite among many celebrities. Hollywood actors Bruce Willis and Mark Wahlberg are among many high-profile personalities who have been spotted wearing one.

At Watchfinder, we offer an extensive range of pre-owned Rolex Yacht-Master models to suit every taste. Discover the perfect Rolex Yacht-Master that mirrors your unique style and personality in our selection today.

Rolex yacht-master collection.

The Rolex Yacht-Master collection embodies the relationship that Rolex has formed with the world of yachting. Precision and excellence are essential when navigating the open seas, and the Yacht-Master’s reliable, waterproof, and robust qualities make it the perfect timepiece for the sport.

While the original Rolex Yacht-Master is a stylish and ultra-luxurious accessory for boating enthusiasts, the Yacht-Master II brings together the best of Rolex technology to accurately time regatta races. Whether you’re lounging on a boat, or racing one, there is a Yacht-Master watch for your every need.

The Rolex Yacht-Master is the brand’s most diverse collection of sports watches, available in a wide variety of sizes, metals, bracelets, and bezel materials. Explore our wide selection of Rolex Yacht-Master watches at SwissWatchExpo.com.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE ROLEX YACHT-MASTER COLLECTION

Although the Yacht-Master collection was not introduced until 1992, the relationship between Rolex and the world of sailing dates to the late 1950s.

With the invention of the Oyster, the world’s first waterproof wristwatch case, Rolex had already built a reputation for making excellent waterproof watches since the 1920s. In 1958, Rolex entered a partnership with the prestigious New York Yacht Club, a social and boating club which sponsors an annual regatta.

By 1966, Rolex solidified its ties to the world of sailing when Francis Chichester – one of the world’s pioneering aviators and solo sailors – became the first person to sail around the globe, all while wearing a Rolex on his wrist. He sailed on his yacht, the Gipsy Moth IV, from August 1966 to May 1967, taking him 29,600 miles around the world. What made his journey even more impressive is that he had limited access to tools in navigating his journey, having only a few nautical charts, a sextant, and a Rolex Oyster Perpetual to keep time.

Even with its proven success at making watches suited for sailing, Rolex never got around to creating a watch specifically for this category. The brand did make a prototype of the Cosmograph chronograph with the name “Yacht Master” on its dial, but they ultimately decided not to bring it to market. Only two known examples of the Cosmograph Yacht Master are known to exist, one of which was owned by singer Eric Clapton and sold at auction in 2003.

Almost three decades later in 1992, Rolex finally introduced the modern Yacht-Master - the brand’s first luxury sports watch built for the open seas. Whereas Rolex’s previous sports watches had utilitarian themes – the Submariner for diving, the Daytona for racing, and so on – the Yacht-Master was focused on aesthetics and luxury. To drive this home, the first ever Rolex Yacht-Master was forged in solid 18k yellow gold, from its bi-directional rotating bezel to its Oyster bracelet.

Over the next few decades, Rolex gradually expanded the Yacht-Master collection to include larger sizes, new metals such as steel, platinum, white gold, and Everose, and incorporated new materials like the Cerachrom ceramic bezel and the Oysterflex rubber bracelet. In its relatively short history, the Rolex Yacht-Master has become one of the most varied collections among Rolex sport watches.

Fifteen years after the launch of the Yacht-Master, Rolex introduced its bigger sibling, the Yacht-Master II. While the original Yacht-Master was luxury-oriented, the latter was a purpose-built watch especially designed to time regatta races.

The Yacht-Master II was unlike anything Rolex had launched before. Not only was it massive with its 44mm case, but it also had a bold, visually striking design that stood out among Rolex’s catalog of versatile timepieces.

On its debut, it also instantly became Rolex’s most complicated watch. To cater to its niche market, Rolex equipped the Yacht-Master II with innovative features like a regatta countdown timer (to accurately measure time until the start of a race), and a flyback and fly-forward functionality (to easily synchronize the time should the race officials have to restart the race).

The Rolex Yacht-Master II is only available in one size, a 44mm case with an Oyster bracelet, but is available in a variety of metal alloys.

The Rolex Yacht-Master and Yacht-Master II continue to be part of Rolex’s catalog and serve as the embodiment of the brand’s relationship with the world of sailing.

KEY FEATURES OF THE ROLEX YACHT-MASTER

The Rolex Yacht-Master collection is composed of two families of watches: the original Yacht-Master, and the Yacht-Master II. While these two models have the same name, they are quite different from each other.

The Yacht-Master was introduced in 1992 as an ultra-luxurious sports watch for yachting and sailing enthusiasts. The nautical-inspired timepiece takes after the Rolex Submariner, but with greater emphasis on luxury materials and aesthetics.

The Yacht-Master II is a relatively new addition to the Rolex portfolio, introduced in 2007. Much larger that the Yacht-Master at 44mm, it is a purpose-built regatta watch equipped with a countdown timer for use in competitive sailing.

FEATURES OF THE ROLEX YACHTMASTER

Rolex yacht-master design.

Rolex Yacht-Master models come in an Oyster case with 100 meters of water resistance, a Triplock winding crown, and a bi-directional rotating bezel with raised 60-minute graduations and numerals. To make the watch easily readable, the dial features lume-filled round, baton, and triangular hour markers; luminous Mercedes-style hands, a date window at 3 o’clock, and a sapphire crystal with a Cyclops lens for easier reading of the date.

Since the introduction of the first all-gold Rolex Yacht-Master model in 1992, Rolex has expanded the line in terms of materials, aesthetic details, and mechanical upgrades. Here are the options available within the collection.

ROLEX YACHT-MASTER SIZES

The Yacht-Master line is one of the most varied Rolex collections due mainly to the number of sizes made available. The smaller sizes, particularly the Lady Yacht-Master models, have been discontinued, but are still available in the pre-owned market.

• 29mm (discontinued)
• 35mm (discontinued)

ROLEX YACHT-MASTER MATERIALS

The solid 18k yellow gold and two-tone models of the Yacht-Master have been discontinued and replaced with the Everose and White Gold versions. The 37 and 40mm sizes come in Everose, Everose Rolesor, and Rolesium metals, while the 42mm comes exclusively in White Gold.

• Yellow Gold (discontinued)
• Yellow Rolesor (Steel and Yellow Gold - discontinued)
• Everose Gold
• Everose Rolesor (Steel and Everose Gold)
• Rolesium (Oystersteel and platinum)

ROLEX YACHT-MASTER BEZELS

The bezel material used for the Yacht-Master depends on the metal or alloy used for the case.

• Matte Cerachrom bezel – 18k Everose and white gold models
• 18k Gold bezel – Rolesor steel and gold models
• 950 Platinum – Rolesium steel and platinum models

ROLEX YACHT-MASTER BRACELETS

The Rolex Yacht-Master has only been equipped with the three-link Oyster bracelet and the Oysterflex bracelet, which combines rubber with an internal flexible metal blade. The Oysterflex can only be found on the solid 18k Everose and white gold models with matte ceramic bezels.

ROLEX YACHT-MASTER MOVEMENTS

The Yacht-Master uses a time-and-date movement that changes depending on the size of the watch. Below are the movements used for each size.

• 29mm - Caliber 2135; Caliber 2235
• 35mm - Caliber 2135; Caliber 2235
• 37mm - Caliber 2236
• 40mm - Caliber 3135; Caliber 3235
• 42mm - Caliber 3235

FEATURES OF THE ROLEX YACHTMASTER II

Rolex yacht-master ii design.

The Rolex Yacht-Master II is one of the brand’s largest watches. Each model comes with a 44mm Oyster case that is water resistant to 100 meters, a Triplock winding crown, a Ring Command Bezel, two chronograph pushers, and an Oyster bracelet.

It is also one of Rolex’s most complicated watches, as it features a regatta chronograph with a countdown that can be programmed from 1 to 10 minutes, allowing yacht racers to accurately time the start of a race. Furthermore, its Ring Command Bezel is more than just a decorative element – it operates in conjunction with the movement and is actually how the user can set the programmable countdown.

ROLEX YACHT-MASTER II MATERIALS

All Rolex Yacht-Master II models come in the same 44mm case size. Models are available in the following metals:

• Yellow Gold
• White Gold and Platinum
• Everose Rolesor (stainless steel and Everose gold)
• Oystersteel

The materials used for the bezel differ depending on the material of the case. Below are the available configurations.

• Cerachrom Bezel – Yellow Gold, Everose Rolesor, Oystersteel
• 950 Platinum – White Gold

ROLEX YACHT-MASTER II DIALS

The Yacht-Master II dial is unlike anything seen on other Rolex models because of its niche complication. It features a countdown display which can be programmed from 1 to 10 minutes, and read using the red-tipped arrow hand. Below the hour and minute hands at the center is a running seconds sub-dial. There’s also a red central chronograph hand, which can fly back or fly-forward to its starting position while in motion. It also features 12 square lume-filled hour markers.

ROLEX YACHT-MASTER II MOVEMENTS

The Yacht-Master II is equipped with two of Rolex’s most advanced movements to date, which feature a programmable countdown timer with mechanical memory, and chronograph synchronization.

Earlier models were powered by the 4160, and later models were upgraded to the 4161. The latter is based on the Daytona’s Caliber 4130, which features the same blue Parachrom hairspring for better switch resistance, and offer a 72-hour power reserve.

• Ref 116689 - Caliber 4160; Caliber 4161
• Ref 116688 - Caliber 4160; Caliber 4161
• Ref 116681 - Caliber 4160; Caliber 4161
• Ref 116680 - Caliber 4161

EXPERT OPINION ON THE ROLEX YACHT-MASTER COLLECTION

“The Rolex Yacht-Master was designed for the rigors of nautical use with its bidirectional bezel for the Yacht-Master and the regatta timer for the Yacht-Master II. With its elegant yet highly-functional design and use of exclusive materials, it bridges the worlds of sport and luxury.” – Eugene Tutunikov, CEO of SwissWatchExpo

POPULAR ROLEX YACHT-MASTER AND YACHT-MASTER II COMPARISON

Rolex Yacht-Master Everose 126655 and 268655

Both introduced in 2015, the ref 126655 and 268655 marked the first time that the Rolex Yacht-Master was presented in solid Everose gold and an Oysterflex bracelet.

These models have slight but important differences. The former comes in a 40mm case and the latter in a 37mm case. Moreover, they are powered by different movements.

The 40mm edition runs on the ever-reliable Caliber 3235 movement which is used by many of Rolex’s date watches, such as the Submariner and Datejust. The 37mm edition, meanwhile, uses the Caliber 2236 movement, which is found in ladies’ watches such as the Lady-Datejust. They run using different oscillators, with the 3235 using the Paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring and the 2236 using the Syloxi hairspring. Both are COSC-certified but the 3235 runs on a longer power reserve of 70 hours (vs 55 hours).

Rolex Yacht-Master Rolesor vs Rolesium

The Rolex Yacht-Master comes in a variety of mixed metals, namely Rolesor and Rolesium. “Rolesor” is a Rolex term that refers to the combination of stainless steel and gold while “Rolesium” refers to the combination of stainless steel and platinum.

The Rolex Yacht-Master 40 and 37mm sizes come in Everose Rolesor (Oystersteel and 18k Everose gold) and Rolesium (Oystersteel and 950 platinum) with Everose gold appearing on the bezel and center links, while platinum appears in a sandblasted finish on the bezel.

COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT THE ROLEX YACHT-MASTER

Built for the sea, but stylish enough for any occasion, the Rolex Yacht-Master is one of the most desired sports watches in the brand’s catalog. Here are some of the most common questions asked about the Rolex Yacht-Master.

WHAT IS A ROLEX YACHT-MASTER?

The Rolex Yacht-Master is a collection of watches built for yachting and sailing. It is composed of two families of watches: the Yacht-Master, a luxury watch designed to be worn on while lounging on a boat; and the Yacht-Master II, a functional sports watch designed to accurately time the start of a regatta race.

WHY IS THE ROLEX YACHT-MASTER SO EXPENSIVE?

As a line of sport watches with special focus on aesthetics, the Rolex Yacht-Master collection evokes an unmistakable sense of luxury than can only be achieved by using the finest materials.

The Rolex Yacht-Master II in particular, is equipped with exclusive functions and features such as the programmable countdown with mechanical memory and the Ring Command Bezel.

The architecture, manufacturing, and innovative features of the Yacht-Master collection make it unique in the world of watches and therefore fetches a higher price tag.

HOW WILL I KNOW IF MY ROLEX YACHT-MASTER IS GENUINE?

A genuine Rolex watch will be beautifully finished and decorated in keeping with the brand’s uncompromising quality standards. If you see any sign of imperfection on the watch, such as misaligned or misspelled text, unfinished surfaces, or wrong engravings and markings, it is likely a fake.

It is always advisable to do research beforehand so you can check if the details on your watch is in tune with the model’s features.

We also advise clients to only purchase a watch from a reputable and trusted dealer, who can provide a guarantee of authenticity on the watch.

IS THE ROLEX YACHTMASTER WATERPROOF?

Rolex Yacht-Master watches are guaranteed water resistant to a depth of 100 meters of 330 feet. The collection was not made specifically for diving, but they come with screw-down crowns and case backs, which protect the movement from moisture and dust that can be encountered with sporting use.

With our extensive guide, finding the perfect Rolex for sale has never been easier.

Rolex Bracelet Terms

The following terms are standard when discussing Rolex watch bracelets and bands.

• Argentinian bracelet: President bracelets made in Argentina with stylistic changes to the buckle
• Hecho in Mexico: A stamp found on president bracelets made in Mexico
• Integral: A discontinued, angular linked bracelet common among Oyster quartz models
• Jubilee: More elegant link with three small center pieces
• Oyster: A large center link bracelet mainly found on sport models
• Pearlmaster: High-end watches with modified oyster bracelets in solid gold
• President: A high-end watch bracelet with a shorter middle section than an oyster, only in solid gold
• Strap: A leather strap with traditional Ardillon buckles

Rolex Clasp Terms

Rolex watch clasps come in several different versions that include the following:

• Oysterlock clasp: Rolex's newest clasp is corrosion-resistant and blends engineering, smooth lines, and security to keep your watch where you want it — on your wrist.
• Glidelock clasp: Similar to the Oysterlock clasp but much longer, the Glidelock clasp allows divers to expand the band. Wears can quickly adjust this watch to fit over thick diving suits.
• Rolex buckle: The Rolex buckle is a classic staple of leather bands but is increasingly rare as more Rolex watches come with bracelets.
• Oysterclasp: The Oysterclasp looks nearly identical to the Oysterlock clasp, but this clasp lacks the Oysterlock’s fold-over security lock. It secures most Classic watches, such as the Datejust and Oyster Perpetual models.
• Hidden Crownclasp: The Rolex Hidden Crownclasp is an elegant addition to Rolex watches. Watch bracelets with this clasp look like an unbroken chain of steel or gold.

Testimonials

"I recently purchased my third Rolex from Wes at Bob's. As always, Wes was great to work with. The transaction was easy and seamless. Most importantly, my watch which was listed as "Light sings of wear on bracelet" looks brand new to me. I really could not see any signs of wear. I am thrilled with my new (2013) GMT Master. I can't imagine buying a used Rolex (you can't buy a new one if you are an average guy) from anyone else but Bob's. I highly recommend them and Wes."

Review originally published on Trustpilot

"First purchase of a Rolex, & an expensive watch. Did research & found Bob's Watches to be a reputable online option. Reps were helpful answering questions & providing assistance. I was having technical problems with online order & rep assisted over the phone. Required add'l prodding on my part to get order uploaded to my online acct, but it worked out. Watch band was supposed to be sized before shipment, that did not happen, but I was able to remove links, so it ended up also working out.Watch was in better condition than described, thrilled over the moon with purchase."

"This is my first time dealing with Bob's Watches. I've bought a lot of watches in my life and this is actually the first time I've bought a used timepiece. I can only say that I will be a customer for a long time! The process, professionalism and comfort were way beyond my expectations. From start to finish, it was a pleasure to deal with Bob's Watches on every level. I had my watch the day after I placed the order, which was also beyond my expectations. Great products, wonderful people!!"
