A bold yet refined expression of Rolex’s nautical heritage, the Rolex Yacht-Master 42 ref. 226658 brings together cutting-edge materials and timeless design. Released in 2023, this luxurious model is crafted from 18k yellow gold and fitted with a black Cerachrom bezel insert and a high-performance Oysterflex strap—making it a standout choice for those who demand both elegance and endurance.
The 42mm yellow gold case is satin-brushed with polished accents, exuding sophistication while remaining robust and water-resistant to 100 meters. Its matte black dial with large Chromalight-filled hour markers and Mercedes hands ensures optimal legibility in all conditions—whether on deck or on land.

The watch is secured by Rolex’s patented Oysterflex rubber strap, which integrates the comfort of elastomer with a superelastic metal blade core. It is finished with an 18k yellow gold Oysterlock clasp and Glidelock extension system for a perfect fit.
