Rolex achieved perfection when it turned its attention to redefining the purpose and functionality of the bezel. Typically, a bezel operates independently from the internal mechanism; however, the Ring Command bezel in the Yacht-Master II regatta chronograph operates in conjunction with it. A mechanical component that is linked to the movement, the bezel literally acts as the key to the programmable countdown, allowing it to be set and synchronized to the sequence of race start times. Complex in design, but simple in use, it is functionally beautiful.

The Rolex Yacht-Master II Regatta Chronograph in 18kt White Gold and Platinum is an extraordinary achievement in both form and function—engineered for professionals and admired by collectors around the world. Measuring 44mm, this commanding timepiece exudes refined luxury while offering one of the most advanced complications in Rolex’s repertoire. The solid platinum "Ring Command" bezel—bidirectional and 90° rotatable—works in perfect harmony with the internal movement, serving not just as decoration, but as a fully integrated mechanical component that unlocks and controls the watch’s unique regatta countdown timer.

The white dial features bold blue hands, a rare and elegant touch that enhances its legibility and presence. The programmable countdown function—precisely synchronized to the official starting sequence of a yacht race—is operated seamlessly through the interaction of the bezel and movement. Powered by the Rolex in-house self-winding caliber, the Yacht-Master II is a Superlative Chronometer, certified for unparalleled accuracy and reliability.

Crafted with an 18kt White Gold Oyster case and paired with the Oysterlock bracelet featuring the Easylink 5mm comfort extension, this model offers exceptional wearability and robustness. The screw-down crown with the Twinlock waterproofness system ensures water resistance up to 100 meters, making it equally suited for the deck of a racing yacht or an evening of refined sophistication.

Combining Rolex’s legendary precision with a revolutionary countdown complication, the Yacht-Master II is not only a technical marvel but also a rare expression of horological innovation and sporting elegance—an icon born of the sea, but made to command attention anywhere.

This magnificent masterpiece comes with both the original Rolex 18kt White Gold oysterlock bracelet along with the rubber strap; giving you the luxury of switching it as you’d like.

One of the most striking and elusive features of this Rolex Yacht-Master II is its rare blue luminescent hands—a detail that sets it apart from the more commonly seen variants in the collection. These hands, finished in a rich, deep blue and coated with Rolex’s proprietary luminescence, not only enhance legibility in low light but also elevate the watch’s overall aesthetic with a bold, sporty elegance. Only a limited number of examples were ever produced with this unique configuration, making it a highly coveted piece among collectors and enthusiasts who recognize the subtle variations that define true rarity in the world of fine watchmaking. This detail, paired with the already distinctive regatta complication, cements this Yacht-Master II as a true collector’s gem.
