Rolex, known for adhering to its established design principles, occasionally ventures into new territory with stunning results, as exemplified by the Yacht-Master featuring an Oysterflex bracelet.
As a paragon of ultimate luxury, Rolex has consistently unveiled opulent timepieces that reaffirm its esteemed reputation. The introduction of the Oysterflex bracelet in 2015, with the Yacht-Master reference 116655, not only reimagined but arguably revolutionized Rolex's design language. It challenged long-standing perceptions of the brand. The Oysterflex bracelet, crafted from patented engineered material with metal blades coated in resilient and flexible elastomer, marked a departure from Rolex's traditional approach, embracing contemporary trends like athleisure.
The reference 126655 represents the second generation of the Yacht-Master with an Oysterflex bracelet. While retaining much of the previous model's essence, this version boasts Rolex's enhanced calibre 3235, a step up from the 3135 found in reference 116655. The watch is crafted from Rolex's patented Everose pink gold alloy, creating a captivating interplay of gold and black. The bezel features matte black Cerachrom inlay within a knurled gold frame adorned with glossy raised 60-minute markers. The well-balanced and functional dial features luminous markers, striking red text, and a date aperture at three o'clock. This Yacht-Master combines innovation with luxury in a truly remarkable way.
