Yacht-Master II Yellow Gold

Rolex achieved excellence when it concentrated on redefinition of the bezel’s purpose and function. In contrast to the norm, the Yacht-Master II regatta chronograph’s Ring Command bezel functions in tandem with the internal mechanism. Rolex Oyster 44mm Yacht-Master II Yellow Gold luxury wrist watch. Given that it is a mechanical component attached to the movement and can be adjusted and synchronized to the order of race start times, the bezel acts as the literal key to the programmable countdown. It has a complicated design that is easy to use and is tastefully practical.
