Where the sea and the sky meet, the sun rises in the east, and the mist on the ocean is colorful.

Nautical spirit
1992 the Yacht-Master series was launched, launching the first watch specially designed for navigators and sailing athletes. The cooperation between Rolex and the maritime industry and sailing events began in the 1950s, and the Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master deeply embodies this long history of collaboration. This professional watch perfectly combines practicality and nautical style; whether on land or water, it is suitable for wearing. The Yacht-Master is easily identifiable, either with a diamond-set outer ring or with a two-way rotating 60-minute graduated outer ring, and the outer ring is made of high-tech ceramics made of precious metal or Cerachrom ceramic inserts. Quality replica watches.
Oyster case
The 40 mm Oyster case of the Yacht-Master 40 is a model of robustness and reliability. The middle point is cast from a solid 18K white gold block. Rolex watchmakers use brand-specific special tools to tighten the finely pitted bottom cover to seal the case, so only Rolex watchmakers can access the movement. The three-button lock winding crown has a triple waterproof system firmly screwed to the point. Crown shoulders are integrated into the middle case to protect the winding crown. The mirror surface is made of anti-reflective sapphire crystal, which is hard to scratch. A small convex lens window at 3 o’clock makes it easy to read the date. The waterproof Oyster case of the watch gives the movement the best protection.
Caliber 3235 Perpetual movement
The Yacht-Master 40 is equipped with the 3235 movements, launched in 2015, all developed and manufactured by Rolex and provided in this series of watches in 2019. The self-winding movement equipped with it has obtained several patents, fully embodying Rolex’s innovative and excellent watchmaking technology. It has further improved accuracy and reliability, power reserve, shock resistance, anti-magnetic and convenient use. Perfection. Replica watches review.
The 3235 movements are equipped with Rolex’s patented Chronergy escapement system, which is efficient and reliable. This escapement is made of nickel-phosphorus and is not disturbed by magnetic fields. The movement is equipped with Rolex’s patented blue Parachrom hairspring, made of a unique paramagnetic alloy cast by Rolex. The balance spring assembly of the action is fitted with the high-performance Paraflex cushioning device designed and patented by Rolex to improve the shock resistance of the movement.
The 3235-caliber movement has a perpetual automatic winding component, and an eternal oscillating weight winds the action. The barrel’s structure and the escapement system’s excellent efficiency increase the power reserve of the 3235 movements to about 70 hours.
Oysterflex strap with Oyster safety clasp
The innovative strap developed and patented by Rolex comprises a curved elastic metal sheet covered with high-performance black rubber injection molding. It is not easily affected by various environmental conditions and is durable. The back of the Oysterflex strap has a longitudinal cushion for extra comfort.
The Oysterflex strap of the Yacht-Master 40 is equipped with a Rolex-designed and patented 18K white gold folding oyster safety clasp, which prevents the buckle from being opened accidentally. It is equipped with a RolexGlidelock extension device. This innovative rack mechanism, developed and patented by Rolex, is concealed under the buckle cover and allows the fine adjustment of the length of the Oysterflex bracelet in steps without tools. The Rolex Glidelock extensions on the Oysterflex strap have approximately six compartments—2.5 mm, allowing for easy adjustment of the strap length up to about 15 mm.
Superlative Chronometer Certification
Like all Rolex watches, the Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master 40 has received the Superlative Chronometer certification established by Rolex in 2015. In addition, the movements of these watches are also certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Center (COSC). The look is tested after it is assembled, and the action is installed in the case to ensure that the watch can perform excellently in precision, power reserve, waterproof and automatic winding when worn. The accuracy pursued by Rolex is much higher than the standard of precision timepieces certified by the Swiss Official Observatory.
The green seal symbolizes the precision timepiece of the Superlative Observatory. This seal accompanies every Rolex watch and comes with a five-year global warranty.
