The updated Lady Yacht-Master with the 2235 movement, still 29mm, still discontinued, still climbing.
Blue sunburst dials lead the demand.
The second-generation 29mm Yacht-Master, polished Rolesium bezel and late-90s glamour. These were five-figure aspirational watches new; they trade at a fraction now.
Small sports Rolex is the contrarian corner of the ladies' rally: the Datejusts moved first, the sporty models are still repricing. Thin supply means the move, when it comes, comes fast.
Our verdict: The newer, safer version of the same small-sport trade.
