ROLEX YACHT-MASTER 42 226659 IN 18K WHITE GOLD

Rolex Yacht-Master 42 ref. 226659 combines an 18k white gold case with a black dial and black Oysterflex bracelet. Introduced in 2019, this 42 mm model brings together the robust construction of Rolex’s Professional range with a more refined design.

Oyster case is crafted from 18k white gold and measures 42 mm in diameter. Bidirectional rotating bezel features a matt black Cerachrom ceramic insert with raised, polished 60-minute graduations. Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal is fitted with Rolex’s Cyclops lens over the date at 3 o’clock. The screw-down Triplock winding crown and Oyster case construction provide water resistance to 100 metres.

Black dial features applied hour markers and broad hands with Rolex Chromalight display, providing long-lasting blue luminescence in low-light conditions.

Watch is fitted with Rolex’s Oysterflex bracelet, which combines flexible metal blades with a durable black elastomer coating. An Oysterlock safety clasp in 18k white gold incorporates the Glidelock extension system, allowing fine adjustment of the bracelet without tools.

Powering the watch is Rolex’s in-house automatic calibre 3235. The movement features a blue Parachrom hairspring and Paraflex shock absorbers, with a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. Certified as a Superlative Chronometer, it has a stated accuracy of −2/+2 seconds per day after casing.

Offered as a full-set with original box and papers.
