**Rolex Yacht-Master II** is a [[Regatta countdown|Regatta]] [[chronograph]] by [[Rolex]].

===== Overview =====
At the [[Baselworld]] [[2007]] Rolex unveiled this new wristwatch model. It has a [[countdown]] counter with a maximum of ten minutes and with mechanical memory function using the new "[[Ring Command]]" [[bezel]]. At reset, the counter resets to the preset time. This is an unusual model for Rolex in that it features a [[complication]], though the movement is similar to the [[chronograph]] movement found in the [[Rolex Daytona|Daytona]].

The Yacht-Master II is powered by the newly and specifically for this purpose developed [[manufacture]] [[Calibre]] [[Rolex 4160]]. This [[self-winding]] movement consists of 360 components and has a power reserve of 72 hours. Each Yacht-Master II has a [[chronometer]] certification by [[COSC]]. The Yacht-Master II received an updated movement, [[Rolex 4161]], in [[2013]].

===== References =====
The original [[2007]] Yacht-Master II was released only in [[yellow gold|yellow]] and [[white gold]]. In [[2011]], a two-tone [[Rolesor]] steel and [[Everose]] gold version was released, with an all-steel version following in [[2013]]. All Yacht-Master II references received the new [[Rolex 4161]] movement that same year, though all models retain the same reference numbers.

In [[2017]], Rolex updated the dial of the Yacht-Master II with a triangular marker at 12 00 and a rectangular marker at 6 00. These versions also feature new hands, and are marked "-0002" after the reference number.
