For sale is a Rolex Yacht-Master Ref. 16628 from 2005, crafted in solid 18k yellow gold and presented as a complete set with Original Rolex Box, Papers, Manuals, Swing Tags, and Calendar Card.

The Yacht-Master collection was introduced as a more luxurious counterpart to the Submariner, designed for those who appreciate both nautical heritage and refined sportiness.

This reference, the 16628, stands out for its fully 18k yellow gold construction, including the case, bezel, and Oyster bracelet. The bi-directional bezel is engraved with raised polished numerals, offering both functionality and unmistakable presence.
