Catalogue Note:
There is something rather extraordinary about a sports watch conceived for life at sea, yet adorned with diamonds that sparkle like sunlight dancing across the water. Since its introduction in 1992, the Rolex Yacht-Master has embodied a luxurious interpretation of the manufacture's nautical heritage. Reference 226668TBR takes this philosophy further, transforming the familiar silhouette into a remarkable display of Rolex's expertise in gem-setting.
Crafted in 18k yellow gold, the 42 mm case is adorned with brilliant-cut diamonds across the lugs and crown guards, while the bidirectional rotating bezel is entirely set with baguette-cut diamonds. Arranged in a continuous circle, the stones catch the light with every movement of the wrist, creating an almost liquid brilliance. The deep black dial provides a striking contrast, its luminous hour markers, Mercedes hands and magnified date preserving the unmistakable identity of the Yacht-Master. The black Oysterflex bracelet adds a sporting touch to this extravagant creation.
Beneath its glittering exterior beats the automatic calibre 3235, offering approximately 70 hours of power reserve. Rolex's innovative Oysterflex bracelet combines flexible metal blades with a high performance elastomer coating, providing both comfort and resilience.
Dating from circa 2024, the present example captures a playful side of Rolex. Equally at home on the deck of a yacht or beneath the chandeliers of an evening celebration, it brings together the practicality of a nautical sports watch with the brilliance of high jewellery.
