Stay the course

The Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master 40 in Oystersteel and platinum with an Oyster bracelet.

Bidirectional rotatable bezel, timing the distance.

The Yacht-Master’s bidirectional rotatable 60-minute graduated bezel is made entirely from precious metals or fitted with a Cerachrom insert in high-tech ceramic. The raised polished numerals and graduations stand out clearly against a matt, sand-blasted background.

This functional bezel – which allows the wearer to calculate, for example, the sailing time between two buoys – is also a key component in the model’s distinctive visual identity.

Exceptional legibility

Like all Rolex Professional watches, the Yacht-Master 40 offers exceptional legibility in all circumstances, and especially in the dark, thanks to its Chromalight display.

The broad hands and hour markers in simple shapes – triangles, circles, rectangles – are filled with a luminescent material emitting a long-lasting glow.

A legendary combination

Many Rolex watches are available with the now-legendary combination of yellow, white or Everose gold and steel known as Rolesor, but Rolesium is a creation specific to the Yacht-Master.

While the case and bracelet are in rugged Oystersteel, the bezel of the Rolesium versions is made of platinum, imparting a silvery whiteness and vibrant luminosity for an unmistakable sense of luxury.

The Oyster bracelet

Alchemy of form and function.

The Oyster bracelet is a perfect alchemy of form and function, aesthetics and technology, designed to be both robust and comfortable. It is equipped with an Oysterlock folding clasp, which prevents accidental opening and the Easylink comfort extension link, also exclusive to Rolex.

This ingenious system allows the wearer to increase the bracelet length by approximately 5 mm, providing additional comfort in any circumstance.

Owner review: Rolex Yacht Master 16622

The forgotten rolex wildcard..

thedudeschronos

| Wrist Size: 6.7 inch

Rolex Yacht Master 16622

The 1980s was a time of innovation at Rolex, with a refresh of everything in the Rolex catalog and putting a more modern and premium look to the entire line up. Gone are the days of Matte Painted dials, and hand-wound movements of the Daytona but in with the new Glossy dials, White Gold Indices and Sapphire Crystals, similar to the Rolex Line-Up you see today. The 1980s brought change aesthetically and internally to the entire catalog, but while Rolex was in development of the then new Submariner 16610, the iconic design you know today was a redesign of the original?

In the 1980s, Rolex wanted to significantly update and modernize the Rolex Submariner and give a more modern take of the outgoing Submariner 16800 of the late 70s-mid 80s. Rolex experimented with several designs, trying to give a more modern look while keeping the essence and design aspects of a submariner. They were adamant about keeping the submariner DNA for the new redesign and were scared that when unveiled, the design may not appeal to the fans of the brand and the submariner. We are of course talking about one of the most iconic and recognisable watches of all time. The thing was, they really liked the new design, since its more sleek and modern than the outgoing 16800. At the end of the day the Submariner 16610 you know and love came out and was an instant hit and the rest was history. But what happened to the prototype design? The Rolex Yacht Master 16622 was born.

Rolex Yachtmaster 16622

In 1997, we saw the introduction of the Stainless steel Rolex Yacht Master 16622. The 16622 series came in two dial variations Blue and wait for it…..Platinum. You Read it right, they used a solid platinum dial and a platinum rotating bezel, unique only to the Yachtmaster Line. This was the first time Rolex has experimented with the mix of elements being steel and Platinum in a sports watch .

The Rolex Yacht Master 16622 was also the first new release to use super luminova instead of tritium. The Rolesium Yacht Master was seen as a very unique watch that was somewhat oddball in the world of watches because of its combination of materials and its flashy looks featuring the polished centre link bracelet.

If you wanted a more elegant sports watch that looks good on formal occasions and also in the sports club, then the yacht master is the watch for you. The platinum dial glistens under the light and looks simply stunning together with the red contrast “Yacht Master” text and red seconds hand.

The Ladies 29mm and MidSize 35mm versions were also available and in my opinion, would be a stunning watch to pair with your significant other. One of the biggest drawbacks was the price, it was one of, if not the most expensive steel Rolex in the retail catalogue.

Rolex Yachtmaster 16622

The Rolex Yacht Master 16622 was updated in 2013 with the 116622. It included updates such as the more modern Rolex easy link clasp, an updated dial with thinner fonts and a smoother glossy look as opposed to the more metallic look of the old dial. The addition of super luminova instead of the old luminova also make the dial look different. Changes were also made to the bracelet with the end-links fitting much more nicely into the lugs.

Recently we have seen many things happen in the watch market . Rolex Sports Models have had a meteoric rise in value, the hype around every sports model in the Rolex range and truly there insane prices for some pieces in the Submariner ,GMT, Explorer and especially Daytona lines.

In my opinion the Rolex Yacht Master 16622 is a lot of watch for the money. You get precious metals, flashy looks, stunning dial, reliable movement, beautiful finishing and modern looks for around 8,000 USD or 400k pesos. All less than a new submariner !

Rolex Yacht Master 16622

  • One of the cheapest and best value Rolex sports models out there, or less than a new Submariner or the Submariner of its time, the yacht master is a great deal, especially if you want your first expensive piece. For collectors, this would fit collections perfectly, being a unique and elegant addition to your collection and your daily rotation.
  • The Yachtmaster has become iconic and has appeared on the wrist on many stars such as Brad Pitt, Hulk Hogan and most notably Bruce Willis.
  • Great wearability.
  • It's a Scratch Magnet, especially with the giant polished center links.
  • It's heavy, it has a good heft but it gets bothersome at times, due to its sheer weight caused by the platinum dial and bezel.
  • The size, some may find it bug due to the big bezel and smooth case, it appears bigger on some than the Submariner of the time.

5 Tips on How to Tell If a Rolex is Real from Professional Watch Buyers

Rolex watches are valuable so there are many fakes out there. A real Rolex watch might not look much different than a fake to the naked eye, which means that spotting a fake Rolex can be a challenge. As we buy and sell many luxury watch brands, we know how to tell if a Rolex is real and will share some professional tips. These tips apply to both men’s and ladies’ Rolex watches.

Many watch brands have problems with fakes, so some of these tips will work for other types of watches too. For a free authentication and valuation to sell your Rolex watch please arrange an appointment with us – all of our valuations are no obligation.

General Tips on How to Spot a Fake Rolex vs a Real Rolex

We will now run through some features that are present on genuine Rolex watches. Look for the following telltale signs when watch shopping on the used or second-hand market:

rolex yacht master steel platinum 16622

With Rolex watches you are looking for signs of quality, craftsmanship and exquisite attention to detail. People who handle Rolex watches regularly have an innate sense of genuine articles.

How to Tell If a Rolex Submariner, Datejust or Oyster Perpetual is Real or Fake

The Rolex Submariner, Datejust and Oyster Perpetual are exceptional watch models that attract many imitators, so there are a lot of fakes out there. You should always be cautious when watch shopping for these models.

Beware of the following when determining if these second-hand watches are real or fake:

  • Rolex Submariner : Check for rough uneven engravings as a sign of a fake. You may need to use a magnifying glass to spot the best ones. Uneven bezel markings are also a dead giveaway. Numbers on the date display should also be perfectly central.
  • Rolex Datejust : Every letter and number should be completely clear and have precise edges. Any unevenness or lack of clarity on the watch face is a sign of a fake. The date should be perfectly central within the cyclops lens and the bezel should fit flush to the case too.
  • Rolex Oyster Perpetual : Check the case back for the characteristic smooth, metallic surface. As this watch often uses gold, check for any kind of fading in the metal too. Even if you have a vintage model these details will always remain on a genuine item.

The Oyster Perpetual, Datejust and Submariner are all iconic watches and people go to great lengths to make highly-sophisticated copies. Many fakes will require a magnifying lens and keen inspection to spot. If you are ever in doubt, seek a professional valuation for a reliable answer.

Fake Bands, Straps & Boxes

Rolex Daytona in a box

If you want a serious pro tip, checking the band, strap or bracelet will be a good test. A Rolex bracelet should be heavy, especially when made of stainless steel. 

Presidential bracelets use three interlinking pieces but are only present on the Day-Date and certain Datejust models, so beware if you see this bracelet on any other model.

It is not unheard of for a seller of vintage or second-hand Rolexes to have a genuine watch but a replacement or even a fake bracelet. Do your research and check for the correct number of pins.

You can even see stories of fake boxes, which only seem fake due to the colour differences from the originals. Faded crowns, imprecise logos and shallow green colours are all a sign of a fake.

Are Fake Watches a Big Problem?

To put it bluntly, yes. Forgery and unauthorised replication of watches and clocks have been an issue since the late 1700s. Many famous British, Swiss, French and German watchmakers were the subject of forgers’ trade, and this continues today – perhaps above all with Rolex watches.

Fake Rolex watches are frequently sold online and on open market stalls. A fake watch is not just a blight on the collector, they are often sold as part of criminal operations by organised gangs. 

Most luxury watchmakers do not sell any watches online themselves, although it is possible to find an online seller for second-hand watches. The majority of modern fakes originate in China. 

Use a Trustworthy Seller to Buy a Second-Hand Rolex

inspecting a rolex with client

Whatever Rolex model you plan to buy, the highest-quality genuine Rolexes are only available from the most reputable sellers. Of course, spotting a trustworthy seller can be even more difficult than spotting a genuine Rolex watch.

Look for some of the following features as key signs of an honest and trustworthy seller:

  • Experience in the trade : The most reputable sellers of a true Rolex watch will have done so for many years. A good guide is around 10-20 years of experience as a seller of second-hand antiques and luxury goods, which also demonstrates their experience in watch authentication.
  • Relationships with private collectors : The second-hand, vintage or antique watch trade is all about relationships. With good contacts, a watch seller can source Rolex models that are hard to get and provide assurances on the watch’s ownership history.
  • Plenty of current stock : If a seller has a fairly wide selection of luxury watches that are available for sale they are likely to have considerable knowledge of them. Buying and selling Rolex watches means they should have seen many types over the years.

If you would like to use our service to buy a genuine Rolex please view our current stock of men’s and ladies’ watches. Thinking of selling? If so, we can also offer you a chance to schedule an appointment with us for a free valuation.

Perms for Men Guide: Everything You Need To Know About Getting A Perm

How a perm transforms straight stands into a head full of curls, according to a hair stylist.

perms for men

Our product picks are editor-tested, expert-approved. We may earn a commission through links on our site. Why Trust Us?

Gen Z may have you believe that the 90's and 2000's are back in style, but recently a trend from the 80's has been making the rounds on TikTok: the perm. The perm hairstyle was mostly seen on women back then, but today you can find men of all ages fully embracing the curly hair lifestyle. But what actually is a perm, and how you do achieve those soft, semi-permanent waves?

Getting a perm is not the same as going in for a quick trim. It's a complicated chemical process that requires an expert's touch. Luckily, we tapped master hairstylists Anakin Chan and James Corbett to tell us everything a guy needs to know before getting a perm.

What Is a Perm?

Short for "permanent hairstyle," a perm is a chemical treatment thats alter the structure of your hair follicle to transform straight hair into wavy or curly hair. A perm isn't completely permanent—it typically only lasts six months. However, a perm is still a harsh chemical process that you shouldn't take lightly. The chemical process will change you hair's structure and texture until it grows out, which typically is a few months to a year for most guys.

This '80's hairstyle is back in a big way, and especially popular among men who want to try a new style and have some fun with their look.

Perms usually take an hour and a half to complete in a salon setting and can cost anywhere from $100-$200.

How a Perm Works

A perm is a chemical treatment that should always be done by professionals. Attempting a DIY perm at home can seriously damage your hair if you don't know what you're doing, and potentially even result in chemical burns. If you're interested in getting a perm and curious about what to expect, let master stylist James Corbett break it down step-by-step for you.

Grow Your Hair Out

Prepare for your perm by growing you hair out. According to Corbett, the hair should be long enough to wrap around a roller. Chan says the hair should be should be at least an inch and a half long, "but the longer the hair, the better."

Perms make your hair appear shorter, since all the length is wrapped into coil-like tendrils. Depending on the curl you're going for, you want to make sure you have the length to support it.

Cleanse with a Clarifying Shampoo

The first thing a hairstylist will do before starting your perm is shampoo your hair. You can't shampoo your hair for at least 48 hours after getting a perm or your risk deactivating the chemicals, so this wash will be your last for a few days. Once you're back in the chair, they'll detangle and comb out the hair and section based upon your desired curl.

Wrap Hair Around Perm Rods

Next, towel-dried hair is smoothed with perm paper and wrapped around perm rods. On towel dry hair. Hair is smoothed with perm paper and wrapped around perm rods. The size and amount of rods will be based on your hair length and desired amount of curl. "The smaller the roller, the tighter the curl," says Corbett.

Apply Perm Solution

Once the rods are set, a perm solution is applied to the hair. This chemical treatment breaks and resets the hair bonds into waves or curls. Corbett stresses that it's very important to male sure that every rod is throughly saturated to ensure an even wave or curl pattern.

Rinse, Neutralize, Process, and Repeat

After processing, the stylist will carefully rinse your hair while it's still in the rods. The hair is carefully blotted to remove excess water and without disrupting the hair. Then, a pre-neutralizing agent is used to lock the new shape into place. This will take some time to process. Once that's done, the hair is blotted again and neutralizing solution is applied using only half of the bottle of neutralizing solution, saving the remaining amount.

After processing the neutralizing agent, your stylist will carefully and gently unwrap the rods. They'll apply the remaining amount of neutralizing solution in the hair and carefully work it through. After that is processed for a few minutes, a final rinse completes the perm process.

Care for Your New Curls

Avoid washing your hair for 48 hours after getting a perm as the curls continue to set. Even after 48 hours, you'll want to wash your hair sparingly. Shampooing or getting your hair wet too often will cause your perm to fade faster. The drier you keep your curls, the longer they'll last.

To maintain your perm, it’s important to use the right hair care at home. Here are a few expert-recommended products to help care for your curls and extend the life of your perm.

To perm or not to perm.

Perms are gaining popularity among men, thanks to stars like Harry Styles and Timothée Chalamet embracing their natural wave. And of course, we can't forget about the K-pop stars from bands like BTS and EXO who modernized this '80's trend. But is getting a perm the right move for you?

It depends on your hair length, texture, and desired look. Guys with naturally wavy hair might not even need a perm and instead could benefit from adding a few curly hair-friendly products to their hair care routine. If you're ready to grow your straight hair out and give this trend a try, be ready to rock this look for at least six months. Getting a perm is a commitment, but it's not as permanent as the name suggests. At the end of the day, it's just hair. If you're not a fan of how it looks, just wait a few months until it grows out. Experimenting with your hair is fun, temporary, and a great way to discover and express your personal style.

The Yachtmaster is very heavy and great looking. Very proud to own a Rolex. Bob's has the best prices hands down. Thomas W Braun

I had been looking for my next pre owned Rolex. I found Bobs out of the blue one day. Their prices were lower than anyone else I had been looking at. Once I got the Yachtmaster I was very very happy with the condition. It also had the Rolex box and papers.

Hands down the best watch I've ever bought! I love everything about it, from the unique platinum dial and the red details, to the high polish center links and luminous hour markers. I would recommend the 16622 to anyone considering a Yachtmaster.
