Yachting Watches – Multitude of Models for Everyone’s Taste and Pocket

Tweet
Written by Watchalyzer on May 8, 2011 in Magazine - 1 Comment

There is a vast array of available yachting watches (also known as sailing, sail or yacht watches) on the market.  However, there are major differences in their technical features (for example, some even include a GPS, or tide and weather info), types of movements and in materials being used. The choice of these characteristics determines the price which can be from several thousand dollars (the brilliant Rolex Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master II costs staggering $28,000) to next to nothing (the cheapest being the Casio Sea Pathfinder that costs just $30). Despite the differences, these timepieces have a few common features. Each of them includes: a countdown timer that measures time until the start of a regatta, a stop watch that measures time once the race starts, as well as certain water resistance.

Luxury Yachting Watches with Automatic Mechanical Movements

The exclusive Rolex Oyster Perpetual Yacht-Master is a new amazing yachting watch that was presented at the latest edition of Baselworld Watch Show. This high-end watchmaking marvel includes the Rolex 4160 Calibre automatic mechanical movement with Parachrom hairspring, a scratch and corrosion proof ceramic bezel, and a programmable countdown with a mechanical memory. This prominent yacht watch has a price that matches its amazing characteristics and costs $28,000.

The Panerai Radiomir also features a case that is 47 mm wide and the watch is $17,000 worth.
