## Summary

Luxury 18K yellow gold watch featuring a sunburst blue dial, rotating bezel, and date window.

## Description

The Rolex Yacht‑Master reference 16628 is a distinguished expression of Rolex’s commitment to maritime elegance, introduced in 1992 as the first full‑gold Yacht‑Master in 18‑carat yellow gold. This particular execution features a striking sunburst blue dial that adds a vivid nautical flair to the classic 40 mm Oyster case. Powered by the legendary Caliber 3135 automatic movement, it offers COSC‑certified precision and a roughly 48‑hour power reserve. The 18‑karat yellow gold bidirectional bezel and matching Oyster bracelet with Fliplock clasp reinforce its luxurious yet functional design, while the date aperture at 3 o’clock with cyclops lens ensures practicality. With a water resistance of 100 meters, it remains true to its seafaring roots. Collectors prize the 16628 for its rarity as one of the earliest Yacht‑Master models and its full‑gold construction, which imparts both heft and exclusivity. The sunburst blue dial variant is particularly sought after for its vibrant color and refined finishing, making this reference a standout among vintage‑era Rolex sports watches. Like New with EWC pouch.
