Introduction

Introduced in 1992, the Rolex Yacht-Master quickly became synonymous with nautical luxury and sophistication. The 37mm variant, appealing to a diverse audience thanks to its compact size, embodies Rolex's mastery in combining elegance with functionality. The Yacht-Master, tailored for the yachting community, draws on Rolex's long-standing association with sailing and marine adventure. Through various iterations, the Yacht-Master has maintained its core identity as a watch that meets the demands of the sea while exuding elegance. It stands as a symbol of Rolex's engagement with the yachting world, sponsoring prestigious sailing events and reinforcing the bond between the brand and maritime heritage. Offered here we have a Yacht-Master 37mm ref. 268622 in stainless steel with the collection’s signature platinum bezel and a stunning rhodium dial that perfectly fits within the collection’s luxurious aesthetic. With beautiful blue accents topping it off, the Yacht-Master is a stunning timepiece, and with its smaller size, it can appeal to a wide variety of wrist sizes.
