ROLEX YACHT MASTER II I THE SKIPPERS WATCH PAGE 2
ROLEX SYDNEY HOBART YACHT RACE
BEGINS DECEMBER 28TH, 2009
Some of the most treacherous waters in
the Southern Hemisphere lie between Syd-
ney and Hobart, a distance of 628 nautical
miles and nearly a week at sea. Those who
make the voyage are on a course to define
courage. From the individuals to the teams
themselves, the challenge must be faced
with grit and stoicism. Those who have
made the journey have been known to say
it moved their soul. Facing 60-knot winds
and towering seas how could it not?
PAUL CAYARD
Tactician. Skipper. Rock.
Leads by example. First American skipper to win the Whitbread Round the World Race.
Star World Champion. Likes to break new ground. On water.
MAXI YACHT ROLEX CUP
There is an elegance that comes with sai-
ling, which is nearly impossible to see in
difficult, harsh conditions. But along the
Sardinian coastline, the scene is quite dif-
ferent. Here, the Worlds most graceful and
powerful yachts cut through the Mediterra-
nean with agility, refinement and ease. Per-
fect sailing conditions and crew coordina-
tion are crucial to the way these imposing
boats glide along. An entire team reacting
as one is maritime choreography at its fi-
nest. Organised by the Yacht club Costa
Smeralda, the World famous Maxi Yacht
Rolex Cup is very much a competition. To
the spectators eye, the setting and ma-
gnificence of the yachts can make it lookotherwise.
THE ROLEX FARR 40 WORLD
CHAMPIONSHIP
For 96 hours, a stretch of water will be-
come a sea of sameness.
The Rolex Farr 40 World Championship
requires that boats, sails, and even total
crew weight be equal. What will separate
the winning boat from all others will be the
crews ability to work together as a preci-
sely coordinated team, ready to exploit
any and all opportunities the skipper, wind
and sea might provide the difference of a
mere split second something the ocean
can give and take away quickly may be all
thats needed to win.

ROLEX GOLD: ABSOLUTE PURETYRolexs commitment to excellence begins
at the source. By operating its own exclu-
sive foundry, Rolex has the unrivalled abi-
lity to create new and unique alloys, hol-
ding each to the very highest of standards.
Rolexs goal: Absolute purity. Cases, bra-
celets and components are painstakingly
crafted for exceptional durability, colour
and beauty.
TRIPLOCK WINDING CROWN
To protect the movement from invasive
elements such as water and dust, Rolex
invented and patented the Triplock win-
ding crown. Professional models equipped
with this ingenious triple-seal system, like
the Yacht-Master II, are waterproof to 300
metres (1000 feet). The Triplock consists
of 10 separate elements crafted from 18ct
gold for the crown and special polymers
for the gaskets. Once assembled, it screws
down on to the Oyster case as tightly and
securely as a submarine hatch.
4160 MOVEMENT
A perfect start is key to a successful race. In
order to eliminate as much margin for error
as humanly possible, Rolex equipped the
Yacht-Master II with the 4160 Movement,
the product of three years and 35,000 de-
velopment hours. The countdown function
of the movement not only permits the pro-
gramming, but also the resetting of the
countdown for a second time in the event
of an accidentally imprecise first setting.
RING COMMAND BEZEL
It takes genius to make the complex simple. Rolex achie-
ved perfection when it turned its attention to redefining
the pupose and functionnality of the bezel. Typically, a
bezel operates independently from the internal mecha-
nism, however, the Ring Command bezel in the Yacht-Mas-
ter II regatta chronograph operates in conjunction with it.
Now a mechanical component that is linked to the move-
ment, the bezel literally acts as the key to the program-
mable countdown, allowing it to be set and synchronised
to the sequence of race start times. Complex in design, but
simple in use, it is functionally beautiful.
