SUMMARY

The Yacht-Master was initially introduced in 1992 as a more opulent and upscale alternative to the Submariner. It’s characterised by a case more rounded and fluid than the slab-sided shape of other Rolex sports watches and works well as both a dressy and sporty watch. Debuted in 2015, the ref. 116655 introduced a new aesthetic to the range and is historically significant for being the first Rolex to sport the “Oysterflex” rubber strap.
