This particular watch is on my short-list of potential first Rolex PM purchase for me. The matte black dial with the contrasting rose-gold rimmed hour markers really is a treat to see in person (if you appreciate that kind of pop).

It seems like they really haven't rolled out the 126655's much yet. I've been to two separate local AD's in the past few months. Both had told me they had just got one of these in the most recent shipment and both were the previous reference. A quick search on Chrono24 also suggests there aren't really any of these floating around for sale online right now (the 2019 reference).

I think what's been tripping me up is the MSRP on this watch vs. a PM Daytona on OF. At MSRP, you can get a YG or RG/WG Daytona on OF for $1,300 or $2,600 more, respectively. When I think about it that way, I take pause and ask myself "do I really want this YM" given the other Rolex PM options in that price neighborhood.
