100% agree that it's a beauty (as are the rest of the Yacht-Master imho).

My “grail watch” was always going to be some Rolex Everose piece .... but a full out gold watch does not jive with my style sense ...(classiness = less is more ).......
Then I found this beauty at my AD!
It’s perfectly balanced Everose bling and practical wearability .
I have my grail watch now !

The white gold 42mm is a surprisingly different look. Far less ‘bling’. It also avoids the red writing. So plenty of choice for Yachtmaster fans.

I love the color combination. Matte dial, gilt, red, the bezel, the size. Rolex really did a nice job with this one!

It looks amazing on you! I’m just curious if you tried on the 37mm. Assuming that this is the 40mm, it looks great on you but would love to see a side by side on a lady’s wrist.

I used to wear a 37mm two tone YM.... and loved it for a while .... traded it in for an absolutely amazing Grand Seiko .....
But all roads seem to lead back to Rolex .
I’m hoping my new 126655 stays with me for the long haul !

It’s one of the more perfect watches I own. Except rsc and ad left marks on the lugs when changing the straps.

Glidelock oysterflex ceramic bezel and 70hr pr with a nice rose gold. It’s brilliant.

37mm. There is nothing else like it in the Rolex line up. The matte dial with the red text and the black bezel with the rose gold is the best combination.

It's not for me, but I can totally understand why someone would passionately love this watch, it has a lot of unique features such as the ones you pointed out. I'm not big on rubber bands but am a fan of the Yachtmaster line as a whole, I think they will do a full gold bracelet next.
