Unlike the Yachtmaster, which is designed to elegantly enjoy the beach, the Yachtmaster II was released in 2007 as a watch specialized for yacht racing. The combination of the 18KYG (yellow gold) case and blue bezel gives an elegant impression, making it a perfect design for the summer sea. In addition to its beautiful design, the automatic movement "Cal. 4161" equipped with Rolex's proprietary "Regatta Chronograph" is also an attractive point. It has two functions, a "stopwatch" and a "countdown", and can easily measure countdowns of up to 10 minutes. Since it is a professional specification, I don't think it is a function that is used very often, but why not try using it in situations where you need to manage a tight time schedule?

Ottavio

Otavio is a natural dribbler.

He is known for his dribbling ability, which can be said to be unique to South American players, and his aggressiveness in not only providing assists after breaking through but also going after goals himself, makes him nothing less than a threat to opposing players.

The combination of the rounded octagonal SS (stainless steel) case and tropical band is sporty yet gives off a sense of luxury. The case size is 40.8mm, which is a size that is easy to wear on Japanese wrists, and the all-black design makes it easy to use both on and off the job.

Marko Grujic

Marko Grujic leads the team on both offense and defense.

Not only is he a stable defender who makes the most of his height of 191cm, but he also has deep ball-keeping ability, dribbling technique, and goals with high-impact headers, making him a player who shows great potential on both offense and defense.

The Nautilus is known as the ultimate luxury sports watch. It features a unique rounded octagonal bezel, a case inspired by a porthole, and a horizontally embossed dial. It has a simple three-hand design with an intellectual white dial, so it can be used anywhere. It also features a thin automatic movement, Cal.324 SC, which has a high vibration frequency of 28,800, so it is also a nice point that the accuracy is improved when you carry it with you. This is one of the rarest models, with only a few of them available in our store.

Matheus Uribe is an attacking midfielder known for his outstanding scoring ability.

He is one of the players who demonstrates great football sense as a midfielder, with excellent ball-holding ability in the midfield, quick ball control after stealing the ball, accurate long passes that can change the game's development, and accurate shots from mid-range.

Introduced in 2009 with a ceramic bezel while retaining the traditional "blue sub" design, this model is extremely well-known among the many combination models available, and is so popular that it sells out immediately when it arrives at our store. The color balance of the blue dial and bezel, and the SS (stainless steel) x 18KYG (yellow gold) case and bracelet is beautiful, reminiscent of the ocean on a sunny day. Of course, it is not only stylish, but also practical, and the glidelock clasp buckle makes it easy to adjust the bracelet without tools.

summary
