SUMMARY

With its bi-metal finish, this 2005 Rolex Yacht-Master is very much a modern classic interpretation of The Crown's much-loved sports watch. Launched in 1992 as a more relaxed version of the Submariner, the Yacht-Master has been a staple in the Rolex line-up for the last 30 years. This particular piece is forged largely from stainless steel, yet it wears a bi-directional, media-blasted platinum bezel with raised and polished Arabic numerals and bevels. The silver sunburst dial is a further source of visual interest thanks to its contrasting red 'Yacht-Master' scripture and sweeping seconds hand. Beneath the screw-down rear case back beats Rolex's venerable 3135 calibre, an automatic movement highly regarded for its reliability and accuracy.
