Reference 16622 occupies a compelling position in the Yacht-Master lineup, combining a round 40mm stainless steel case with a platinum bezel capable of uni-directional rotation — a feature that lends the watch genuine timing functionality alongside its maritime character. A screw-down crown and folding-clasp Oyster bracelet round out the case construction, keeping the overall package cohesive and purpose-built.
The silver dial is rendered in platinum and populated with dot and index hour markers, both fitted with luminescent material to maintain readability across varying light conditions. Luminescent hands reinforce that legibility, while a date display sits neatly within the dial layout. Beneath, an automatic movement drives the hours, minutes, seconds, and date functions, all protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
This example is offered with its original box and papers, making it a particularly complete acquisition for the collector or first-time buyer alike. Swiss made and finished to Rolex's well-documented standards, the Yacht-Master 16622 moves naturally between active leisure and formal settings — a versatile choice for the contemporary gentleman.
