Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 Super Clone : 18k Yellow Gold Champagne Dial 40mm

The Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 super clone features the 40mm 18-karat yellow gold nautical sports watch paired with a gold bidirectional bezel and a champagne dial, finished to 98% visual and dimensional parity with the genuine reference. This Yacht-Master 16628 Super Clone carries a bidirectional rotatable 60-minute bezel with raised polished numerals, a date at 3 o’clock under a Cyclops lens, and the yellow gold Oyster bracelet, priced at $1,549 against a genuine pre-owned market figure near $19,000.

This yellow gold Yacht-Master Super Clone uses a polished 18-karat yellow gold case, a bidirectional 60-minute gold bezel with raised polished numerals on a sandblasted matte ground, and a yellow gold Oyster bracelet with a folding Oysterlock safety clasp. A Swiss-grade clone of Rolex Caliber 3135 drives the timekeeping at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a roughly 48-hour power reserve. Rolex builds the Yacht-Master as a nautical sailing watch rated to 100 meters of water resistance, and this super clone matches the case proportions and the bezel construction of the 16628 production run, which ran from about 1992 to 2007. The watch ships from a top-tier specialist factory with a full quality control pass, insured worldwide delivery, and a 1-year limited warranty.

Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 Super Clone : 18k Yellow Gold Champagne Dial 40mm Overview

The Yacht-Master 16628 is the first-generation 40mm full yellow gold version of the Rolex nautical sports watch, built here with a gold bidirectional rotatable bezel and a champagne dial. This super clone follows the 16628 reference with a 40mm 18-karat yellow gold case, a screw-down Twinlock crown, and the three-link yellow gold Oyster bracelet for $1,549. Every proportion, the raised polished bezel numerals, and each bracelet link follow the genuine reference within tight production tolerance.

Case, Crown and Lug Profile - 40mm Yellow Gold Build

The Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 super clone carries a 40mm Oyster case measuring 11.5mm thick, built with 18-karat yellow gold plating over a steel core for accurate weight and a warm gold tone. The case carries a high mirror polish across the lugs, flanks, and case middle, and the rounded middle case gives the 16628 the softer, more refined profile that separates the Yacht-Master from the tool-watch Submariner. The screw-down Twinlock crown at 3 o'clock seals the case for water resistance to 100 meters.

Yellow Gold Bidirectional 60-Minute Bezel

The bidirectional rotatable bezel turns in both directions and carries a graduated 60-minute scale machined into 18-karat yellow gold, a defining feature of the full gold Yacht-Master. The raised polished numerals stand against a sandblasted matte gold ground, which gives the bezel its bright-on-grain contrast and three-dimensional finish. This super clone follows the genuine 16628 bezel with a smooth bidirectional action that lets the wearer track elapsed time or a regatta countdown from either direction.

Sapphire Crystal, Cyclops Lens and Caseback

Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating covers the champagne dial and carries a Cyclops magnification lens over the date aperture at 3 o'clock. The Cyclops lens enlarges the date by 2.5 times for quick reading, a long-standing detail of the dated Rolex sports line. The solid screw-down caseback seals the Caliber 3135 clone movement and supports the 100-meter water resistance rating of the Yacht-Master.

Champagne Dial with Applied Markers

The champagne dial of this Yacht-Master 16628 super clone carries a warm golden surface that pairs cleanly with the polished yellow gold bezel and case. The applied hour markers and the Mercedes hands follow the genuine 16628 layout, and this super clone matches their size, placement, and polished gold borders. The date aperture sits at 3 o'clock under the Cyclops lens, framed by a fine border for contrast against the champagne field.

Luminous Hands and Hour Markers

The Yacht-Master 16628 carries applied hour markers and Mercedes-style hands filled with luminous material for legibility in low light. The lume fill glows after dark, which gives a clear time reading on the water or at night. The central hour, minute, and seconds hands follow the genuine reference in shape and proportion, and the markers match the size and placement of the authentic 16628.

Logo, Text and Symmetry

The applied Rolex coronet sits at 12 o'clock, with "Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date Yacht-Master" printed across the dial in fine text. The print stays crisp against the champagne surface, and the line spacing follows the genuine 16628 layout. The champagne dial, the gold bezel, and the yellow gold case give the 16628 the warm, unified gold presentation that defines the full gold Yacht-Master.

Swiss-Grade Caliber 3135 Clone Movement

The Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 super clone runs on a Swiss-grade automatic movement engineered to match the genuine Rolex Caliber 3135 in feel, frequency, and autonomy. The movement operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, winds bidirectionally through a free-rotating rotor, and holds a power reserve of approximately 48 hours for two days off the wrist. The caliber drives the central hours, minutes, seconds, and the date at 3 o'clock.

Accuracy and On-Water Performance

Daily deviation holds within -5 to +8 seconds per day after factory regulation, close to the chronometer standard of the genuine Caliber 3135. The smooth sweeping seconds hand and the quiet rotor confirm the Swiss-grade build. The 100-meter water resistance and the screw-down Twinlock crown let the 16628 super clone hold its seal through sailing, swimming, and daily wear.

Yellow Gold Oyster Bracelet and Oysterlock Clasp

The Yacht-Master 16628 super clone carries the yellow gold Oyster bracelet, the three-piece-link design Rolex pairs with the full gold Yacht-Master. The bracelet uses an 18-karat yellow gold finish with polished outer and center links, tapering smoothly from the lugs toward the wrist. A folding Oysterlock safety clasp prevents accidental opening and closes flush against the wrist. The Yacht-Master uses the Oyster bracelet or the Oysterflex strap, and never a President bracelet.

Easylink Extension, Wrist Feel and Comfort

The watch weighs approximately 175 grams on the full yellow gold Oyster bracelet, giving the substantial wrist presence buyers expect from a solid gold Yacht-Master. The Rolex Easylink extension inside the clasp adjusts the bracelet length by 5mm for a quick comfort fit as the wrist changes through the day. The 40mm case and solid three-link bracelet sit comfortably on wrists from 6.25 to 8 inches.

Yacht-Master 16628 vs Yacht-Master 116622 vs Yacht-Master 116655 - Which Nautical Watch to Buy

The Rolex Yacht-Master line offers three headline references across generation and material, and the 16628 holds the first-generation 40mm full yellow gold nautical watch. The comparison of the three Yacht-Master references is listed below.

Variant Case Size Material Caliber Super Clone Price
Yacht-Master 16628 (this reference) 40mm 18k yellow gold Caliber 3135 $1,549
Yacht-Master 116622 40mm Steel and platinum Rolesium Caliber 3135 $1,449
Yacht-Master 116655 40mm Everose gold and Cerachrom Caliber 3135 $1,499

Buyers select the Yacht-Master 16628 for the full 18-karat yellow gold case and bracelet and the warm champagne dial. The 116622 buyer prefers the steel-and-platinum Rolesium look at a lower weight and a cooler tone. The 116655 buyer chooses the rose gold Everose case with the matte black Cerachrom bezel and the Oysterflex strap. The Yacht-Master 16628 Super Clone gives the unified gold nautical presentation with the date function and the Cyclops lens.

Heritage - The Rolex Yacht-Master Since 1992

The Rolex Yacht-Master launched in 1992 as a nautical sports watch built for the sailing and yachting world rather than for deep-sea diving. Rolex designed the model around a bidirectional rotatable 60-minute bezel with raised polished numerals, a feature that separates it from the unidirectional dive bezel of the Submariner. The first Yacht-Master arrived as the reference 16628 in 18-karat yellow gold, the original full-gold expression of the line. Rolex later introduced the steel-and-platinum "Rolesium" specification that pairs an Oystersteel case with a solid platinum bezel. The reference 16628 carried champagne, white, and blue dial options with the Caliber 3135 movement across a production run of about 1992 to 2007. The Yacht-Master holds water resistance to 100 meters, the rating Rolex sets for a sailing watch rather than a professional dive instrument. The Yacht-Master 16628 Super Clone carries that founding yellow gold heritage and the proven Yacht-Master nautical design onto the wrist.

★★★★★

The gold tone and champagne dial work together

"I wanted a full gold sports watch rather than a two-tone, and the 16628 delivers exactly that. The champagne dial sits warm against the yellow gold bezel and case with no mismatch in tone. The bezel turns smoothly in both directions. At $1,549 it reads like the genuine on the wrist."

Heavy and substantial like solid gold should feel

"Shipped DHL and arrived in Manchester in 7 days. The packaging was discreet exactly as described. The Yacht-Master has real weight to it at around 175 grams, which is what sold me. I have worn it daily for two months with no fading on the gold finish."

First super clone and the finishing convinced me

"I was nervous spending this much on my first clone. WhatsApp support answered every question about the Yacht-Master 16628 before I ordered. The watch arrived in a full box set with papers. The polished gold links and the champagne sunray dial closed the deal for me."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Every question below is answered with direct context covering super clone basics, quality, choosing the right reference, and orders & support.

Is the Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 a 1:1 super clone?+

Yes, the Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 sold on Super Clone Watches is a 1:1 super clone that matches the genuine Rolex reference at 98% visual and dimensional accuracy. The build matches the yellow gold bezel, the champagne dial, the Cyclops date lens, the screw-down Twinlock crown, and the yellow gold Oyster bracelet geometry within tight tolerance. The price of $1,549 compares to a genuine pre-owned market figure near $19,000.

Is the Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 a deep-sea dive watch?+

No, the Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 is not a deep-sea dive watch, since Rolex designed it as a nautical sailing watch with water resistance to 100 meters. The bidirectional rotatable bezel suits regatta timing and elapsed-time tracking on the water rather than decompression timing at depth. Buyers who want a dedicated deep-sea instrument should look at the Rolex Sea-Dweller or Deepsea instead, while the Yacht-Master covers sailing, swimming, and daily wear.

What years did Rolex produce the Yacht-Master 16628?+

Rolex produced the Yacht-Master 16628 from about 1992 to 2007, since it served as the original full yellow gold Yacht-Master 40. The reference launched the model line in 1992 and remained in the catalogue until the 116628 successor took its place. This super clone follows the 16628 case, bezel, and bracelet specification from that production era.

What dial colors did the 16628 offer?+

The 16628 offered champagne, white, and blue dial options across its production run. This super clone uses the champagne dial, a warm golden surface that pairs with the 18-karat yellow gold case and bezel for a unified gold presentation. The champagne dial carries applied hour markers and Mercedes hands with polished gold borders.

How is the watch shipped internationally?+

The Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 super clone ships via DHL Express or FedEx Priority with full insurance and tracked, signature-required delivery. The watch travels in secure, discreet packaging to protect your privacy. Transit time runs 5 to 10 business days to the USA, UK, UAE, India, and Europe, and the shipping cost is included in the price.

What movement powers this Yacht-Master 16628 super clone?+

A Swiss-grade automatic clone of Rolex Caliber 3135 powers this Yacht-Master 16628 super clone. The movement runs at 28,800 vibrations per hour, holds a power reserve of approximately 48 hours, and drives the hours, minutes, seconds, and the date at 3 o'clock. Performance matches the genuine caliber on frequency and autonomy, with a smooth sweeping seconds hand and a quiet winding rotor.

What is the price difference vs the authentic Rolex Yacht-Master 16628?+

The authentic Rolex Yacht-Master 16628 trades near $19,000 on the pre-owned market, since Rolex made it in solid 18-karat yellow gold and retired the reference years ago. This super clone sells for $1,549, which delivers 98% visual and functional parity at roughly 8% of the genuine market price. Buyers receive the full yellow gold wrist presence without the capital commitment.

What warranty is included with the 16628 super clone?+

A 1-year limited warranty covers movement defects and manufacturing faults on this Yacht-Master 16628 super clone. Replacement parts sourcing runs through the originating factory via Super Clone Watches support. Movement servicing guidance is provided through WhatsApp and email for the lifetime of the watch.
