Rolex Yacht-Master Ref.16622 B+P
Enthusiasts speculate about the origins of the Yacht-Master, with rumors of prototypes dating back to the late 1960s. However, its definitive introduction occurred at the Basel Fair in 1992. In 1999, Rolex revolutionized the model with “Rolesium,” a unique blend of steel and platinum, marking a significant innovation within the Rolex lineup.
This 2010 Yacht-Master embodies the essence of luxury and sophistication with its striking blue dial adorned with vibrant red accents. Equipped with modern upgrades like the easylink extension system and blue chromalight lume, it reflects the adaptability of Rolex timepieces to the demands of the 21st century. Paired with an Oyster bracelet, this timepiece exudes both elegance and functionality.
With the introduction of the caliber 3255 in 2019, earlier models like the blue/red reference 1166XX gained newfound appreciation as sought-after collectibles. Rolex’s continuous refinement of the Yacht-Master series underscores its commitment to innovation and excellence. This timepiece, complete with its box and papers, is a testament to the enduring allure of Rolex craftsmanship, making it an irresistible choice for enthusiasts and collectors alike.

Rolex is the absolute king of everyday watches. If it is haute horlogerie or the pinnacle of artistry in finishing techniques you are after, look elsewhere. But for pure everyday function, ruggedness and refinement, Rolex wears the crown.
The brand was founded by Alfred Davis and Hans Wilsdorf in London in 1905. In 1908, the name “Rolex” was registered. The brand would put a host of firsts and records to its name in the decades that followed. From the first chronometer rated wristwatch in 1910 to the first wristwatch with a water resistance of 100 meters in 1953.
A range of waterproofing measures, among which a screw-down-crown, resulted in the famous Oyster case. Up to this day it is the basic platform on which the vast majority of Rolex watches is built. Model names often feature both the Oyster (water resistance) and Perpetual (self-winding movement) terminology, followed by a specific model designation such as Datejust or Submariner.
Both modern and vintage Rolex watches are highly sought-after. They are broadly appreciated for their timeless designs, functional toughness, reliability, brand recognition and value retention.
