Yatchmaster rehaut

[replikmaster]

Hello guys...

I'm a little confused, maybe the experts (ok, this could be a dumb question), could tell me if a gen Yatchmaster has engraved rehaut or not...

I see many versions of it on our trusted dealers, with and without engraved rehaut... And I couldn't find any gen detailed image to check...

Thank you for the help!!!

Marcelo.

I may be wrong, but I think the early versions of the Rolesium did not, I need to do some research and come back with a fer sure answer. I do know that since 07\08 the rehaut has been engraved....lemme go confirm unless someone else corrects me, prolly Col..lol

This pretty much nails it, the Rolesium was introduced in 1999, without an engraved rehaut,,,,that was prolly the case until 07 or so.

Thank you very much! I guess you are right, all modern production models must have the engraved one...
Well, let the search begins!

Lume is green....Angus and others have the BEST version of the Rolesium..I have the sa3135 version which just kicks ass, the best OTB Rolesium I have ever seen, however much has been disputed about the sa3135 movement. Good news is the same version with an a2836 is availible too..this is just about the beat u can get sans the Wm9 or BK TW Best, those are about a $1000 though

The Yacht-Master was offered with and without the rehaut engraved. It all depends on the year of production.

...The Yacht-Master "I" is still offered by Rolex, but on medium and lady size only (at least on the Rolex Official Site) but you still can find it on some of the authorized dealers, with the rehaut engraved.

The only Rolex that ended production without having the rehaut engraved was the GMT-Master II (non-ceramic). Since the GMT-Master II CERAMIC was the one that introduced the engraving on its line. All other models got updated with the rehaut engraving.

Cheers,

I think I will get the same as yours, but with the high beat asian 2836 instead...
The sweepping and the rest of the watch will be the same, is that correct?!
Is the TW Best from Puretime...

Because of you and Max, rolexes started to call my attention and my collection just keep growing...
Last two arrived yesterday, a DSSD and a DJ II gold dial, both with Uwe's full treatment, double AR and super freaking lume!
