Notes
Encased in 40mm of 18K pink gold, its black glossy dial serves as a sophisticated backdrop to the real showstopper – a mesmerising gem-set bezel. This kaleidoscope of precious stones features vibrant sapphires, lush green tsavorites and a sparkling diamond at 12 o’clock, transforming timekeeping into wearable art, but beauty isn’t skin deep with the Yacht-Master 40 116695SATS. Powered by the robust Caliber 3135 movement and boasting 100m water resistance, it marries form with function. The Oysterflex bracelet adds a sporty touch to its luxurious appeal.
This timepiece isn’t just a watch, it’s a statement of success, a testament to Rolex’s mastery in watchmaking and gem-setting. Now discontinued and a rare find at auctions, it represents the pinnacle of horological artistry – a true ‘must-have’ for discerning collectors and connoisseurs alike.
