What We Know
Late last year, AAA fake Rolex watches released the Deepsea Challenge in its proprietary RLX titanium material. That watch also happened to be 50mm in diameter and basically unwearable for mere mortals. Today another watch enters the RLX fray: The Rolex Yacht-Master 42. We last saw a titanium Yacht-Master on the wrist of Ben Ainslie – the famed sailor. That was years ago, and the watch he was wearing was a prototype on a strap.
This new release is a full titanium perfect copy Rolex Yacht-Master 42 watches. That means a titanium case and titanium bracelet – just like the Deepsea Challenge. In terms of aesthetics, the overall design language is everything we have come to expect from the black-Cerachrom bezel YM’s of late. That means we get the raised black numerals against a matte ceramic bezel insert. But where the case would normally be a precious metal, now we get this watch in full titanium.
The titanium bracelet is fully brushed (thank you, Rolex) and features the brand’s 5mm Easylink extension system.
What We Think
I had a hunch more titanium was coming, but I also figured we were years away from such a thing. I did not expect a second titanium Rolex mere months after the Deepsea Challenge, and I fully did not expect that best replica watches to be a Yacht-Master. Now that it’s here, though, I should have – considering the prototype was known to have existed.
To be honest, the draw here for me is top Rolex clone watches decision to put this on a titanium bracelet. It would have been all too easy to throw this on Oysterflex and call it a day. But the choice of a fully-brushed titanium bracelet puts the Yacht-Master firmly in the tool-watch category and makes me more excited about the model than I ever have been before.
Having worn the buy replica Rolex Yacht-Master 42 watches in white gold, on Oysterflex, the sizing doesn’t scare me at all, and this likely will wear even better on the bracelet. Stay tuned for our hands-on impressions – as I can’t wait to feel how light this one is.
