Rolex Yachtmaster Titanium 42mm Ref: 226627 2024

The Rolex Yacht-Master 42 Titanium Ref. 226627 represents a significant milestone in Rolex history as the brand’s first serially produced watch crafted entirely from titanium, introduced in 2023. Designed for professional sailors and offshore racing, it is housed in a 42 mm RLX titanium case—a proprietary alloy chosen for its exceptional lightness, strength, and corrosion resistance—paired with a matte black Cerachrom bezel featuring raised polished numerals for optimal legibility. The watch is powered by the in-house Calibre 3235, an automatic movement offering a 70-hour power reserve, Chronergy escapement, Parachrom hairspring, and Rolex’s Superlative Chronometer certification for accuracy and robustness. The primary complication is a date display at 3 o’clock with Cyclops magnification, integrated into a time-only layout engineered for clarity and reliability at sea. Historically, the Yacht-Master line sits as a more luxurious, sailing-focused counterpart to the Submariner, and the 226627 elevates that concept by combining cutting-edge materials with tool-watch credibility. Within the Rolex lineup, it occupies a unique and strategic position as the brand’s most modern, performance-driven nautical watch—blending professional functionality with contemporary materials science and understated luxury.
