In Morocco, after the scandal of the watches stolen from King Mohammed VI and that of the IAAF where Lalla Soukaïna was cited, another affair is making headlines in the kingdom and concerns Prince Moulay El Hassan.
“Moulay Hassan, the 16-year-old Crown Prince of Morocco, was recently spotted wearing a Rolex Yacht-Master II in yellow gold (…). The Yacht-Master II watch was designed to meet the needs of professional sailors. This regatta chronograph features the world’s first programmable countdown timer with a mechanical memory,” reported Maghreb Online newspaper.
