If you want to have a Rolex Yacht, here is a piece of good news for you. That is, you need not take that owing a yacht or even sailing on one a prerequisite for wearing this sporty watch that is an eclectic blend of technology. Rolex has been sponsoring yachting races and regattas since the early 1960s. That is one of the firm's newest models.
But there is no denying that the Rolex Yacht-Master is the perfect accessory for high seas - sturdy, robust, water-resistant and submersible up to 330 feet (100 meters). Maybe that is why so many seafaring adventurers and top professional sailors like Paul Cayard, who was a skipper on America Cup and other sailing races, wouldn't leave the shore without it.
Like other sports watches, the no-frills Yacht-Master is chunkier and rougher around the edges than the sleeker, more refined models that are pure wrist candy; it has to be in order to withstand the sometimes rough and unpredictable nautical conditions such as gusty winds, high waves, and stormy weather.
It is also the first Rolex to receive the new "Maxi Dial" - enlarged markers and a thicker minute hand that has become this watch's trademark. As we all know, Rolex watches are not cheap, and their social status is also something you pay for. Rolex watches, the most classical watches in the world.
