Rolex Yacht-Master 16622

Nov 15

SPECIFICATIONS:

Model: Yacht-Master
Reference: 16622
Series: F
Movement: Rolex Caliber 3135
Water Resistance: 330 ft./100 m.
Case: Stainless steel w/platinum bezel
Crystal: Sapphire
Notes: The Yacht-Master has the notable distinction of being the first Rolex to receive the new “Maxi Dial” – enlarged markers and a fatter minute hand. The embossed bezel and the dial are made entirely of platinum. The Oyster bracelet has a polished center link like the Daytona. Also like the Dayton, the Oyster Professional bracelet that on the Yacht-Master has solid center links (not hollow). Even though the watch has a Triplock crown, the water resistance rating is only 100m, the bezel rotates in both directions, and the fliplock clasp does not have a dive suite extension.
