Rolex Yacht-Master II Solid Yellow Gold 2017 New Model
Ref.116688 Serial.Random (manufactured around 2018)
Cal.4161 Accessories: Box, warranty card (100: Germany/September 2018 stamp)
SOLD OUT!!
The Yacht-Master II underwent a minor change and was announced at Baselworld in 2017.
This is a popular model that is Rolex's first to feature a countdown function.
The changes from the old model are:
○The hour hand has been changed from a pencil hand to a Mercedes hand.
○The index at 12 o'clock has been changed from a square to a triangle ▽.
The 6 o'clock index has been changed from a square to a rectangular shape.
○The font of the countdown scale and model notation will be slightly thinner.
It will be.
Incidentally, the current variation is
There are four types: SS model/Ref. 116680, PG combination/Ref. 116681, solid WG/Ref. 116689, and solid YG/Ref. 116688.
The Yacht-Master II has a large, thick case measuring 44mm in diameter and 14mm in thickness, but this solid yellow gold model weighs approximately 259g when fully linked.
The stainless steel Submariner "Ref. 116610LN" weighs approximately 150g, and the solid gold Daytona "Ref. 116509" weighs approximately 205g, so among sports models, this is the second heaviest model after the solid platinum Daytona.
This model is equipped with a regatta chronograph mechanism for yacht racing.
The caliber is equipped with the world's first complex movement, Cal. 4161, which is equipped with a programmed countdown.
The regatta chronograph refers to a countdown function that allows you to instantly measure a countdown from 10 minutes to 1 minute by operating the push buttons at the 2 o'clock and 4 o'clock positions.
When you press the push button at the 2 o'clock position, the red countdown hand will start moving, and as time passes, the countdown hand will approach "0".
This model also features a flyback function that allows you to start the countdown by pressing the push button at 2 o'clock and then pressing the push button at 4 o'clock to instantly return the chronograph hand to the 12 o'clock position and start measuring again.
To briefly explain how to set the countdown time, first rotate the bezel 90 degrees counterclockwise to switch to countdown mode.
* Turn the bezel counterclockwise until it clicks into the 3 o'clock position.
Press the push button at the 4 o'clock position.
The push button will remain pressed.
Open the crown and turn it upwards when viewed from the front to set the countdown time.
The △ countdown hand moves from 0→1→2→3 in 1 minute increments and can be set up to a maximum of 10 minutes.
*When it reaches 10, it will instantly jump to 0.
Once you have decided on the time to measure, screw the crown back in, rotate the bezel 90 degrees clockwise and return it to the starting bezel position to complete the countdown timer setting.
*In the photo, the countdown time is set to 1 minute.
*When the bezel is returned to its original position, the button on the 4 o'clock side will pop out and the watch will return to its original position.
Well!! This has gotten a little long, but that's about it for how to use the countdown function!!
We will explain the details in store!
The condition is that there are scratches overall from use, but they are small scratches that can be removed with the exterior finish.
There is no fraying of the bracelet.
*Frames will be full frames.
There will be a sticker remaining on the buckle.
Comes with box, warranty card, Yacht-Master II booklet, white tag with serial number, and chronometer tag.
