Unlike the Yacht-Master, which was designed to be worn elegantly on the beach, the Yacht-Master II was released in 2007 as a watch specialized for yacht racing . It is the first watch in the world to feature a regatta function with two functions , a stopwatch and a countdown , which had never been used by Rolex before, and can be set to any time between 10 minutes and 1 minute to match the start time, which is the most important time in a yacht race.
The movement is based on Rolex's in-house movement "Cal. 4130" and took four years to develop. The combination of the 18K yellow gold case and blue bezel gives an elegant impression, and the red chronograph and regatta chronograph hands add a refreshing touch. This is a must-have for anyone who loves the sea!

The luxury sports watch "Royal Oak" was designed by the genius designer of the watch industry, " Gerald Genta ", and was born in 1972. Overturning the design codes up to that point, "Royal Oak" became an icon of contemporary watches. In 2012, it celebrated its 40th anniversary, and the case size of the chronograph model was increased from 39mm to 41mm.
The three-counter chronograph equipped with Audemars Piguet's Cal.2385 is an energetic take on the original design by Gerald Genta from the early 1970s. The case thickness is kept to 10.8mm, so it can be worn comfortably with a suit, just like Alvarez in the photo.

It is the only Rolex model equipped with a " complex mechanism " and is Rolex's first semi-complication model equipped with an annual calendar that can display two time zones at the same time. The local time is displayed with the traditional hour, minute, and second hands, and the home time is displayed on the sub-dial. Each month is displayed in a small window on the outside of the index, allowing you to grasp the month, date, and time at a glance, making it an excellent model.
Equipped with the fully in-house movement "Cal. 9001", which is the first since the "Yacht-Master II", it boasts a power reserve of 72 hours. The fluted bezel in Everose gold and the chic black dial create a sense of luxury, making it a watch that is full of the luxury that is typical of Rolex.
