This is the least blingy Yachmaster in the whole line, to me. I mean, it’s got a black dial, black bezel, and black strap with a toned down rose gold case. Thanks for the content!
Very nice review... well spoken. Yesterday I purchased a new 126655 YM with the 3235 calibre( 70 hrs PR), and the glidelock bracelet. Fantastic piece. It is a leader among all my Pateks, AP, Vacheron, etc for its versatlity and zip. As a New Yorker, it is faaaaaaabulous!! Had to pay list price $27,000, but I think it will hold value. Who says Rolex is conservative. The design and materials of this watch are breath taking.
Love it , I own the Rhodium dial 40 and it's a truly lovely piece ... Considered curves , elegant with just enough pop ... Wears beautifully on the wrist ... But I was led to it by the one you have here on the oyster flex strap .. Tried it on and it felt so good ... It really surprised me so off I went to try and eventually get mine...I totally understand why you love it . I hope the new generation YM get the praise and appreciation they deserve ... If you haven't tried one , get it on the wrist ...you will feel the difference.
I also own this watch, and love it!…I believe it’s under-appreciated right now, but once they discontinue it, it’ll be collectible and highly sought after. The first ever “rubber” factory Rolex, it has future collector written all over it.
One of the best looking watches imho. The 40mm will become a classic. I was lucky to buy one at Heathrow Airport in 2019 when waiting for boarding my flight.
Good review! I love my rose gold YM 40. I bought it in 2015-16 when it first came out - at a discount. LOL. I felt the same about the YM line, especially the YM2. I went into the AD looking for something else, and this new (at that time) YM really grabbed me. I tried it on and bought it immediately. The rubber strap is brilliant, and now extended to the Daytona, it fits that watch much better than the alligator straps in earlier iterations. The matt black dial and bezel work really nicely with the polished rose gold.
I love this watch. It’s close to being my daily on my wrist. The Matt and gloss bezel looks great under natural light. Super underrated and I feel great wearing it.
I've been binge watching this channel and this is my favorite piece in your collection.....Elegant, Masculine, and classy. Definitely hold on to this one
Wonderful reference. I've got a 2002 16622 (40mm, "silver" platinum dial and red second hand), which is also a beautiful watch. Really perfect on the wrist
Stunning watch and a great review as always! It would be great to see a review of the SS Rhodium YM 40 in the near future (they have recently updated the movement to 70hr) One of my current favourites from the current line up and a future classic for sure, just don’t see any of them on the wrist. Cheers
I recently bought the new oystersteel / rose gold YM 40 with the chocolate dial and I absolutely LOVE it! It is the best looking YM ever produced in my opinion. So underrated. But I've got a big problem... I also love this one with the oysterflex bracelet and I love the rhodium too. So I'm having a hard time to complete my YM collection : oystersteel / rose gold + rhodium ? Or oystersteel / rose gold + oysterflex / rose gold ?
I just purchased a 116655 and have it for two weeks and absolutely loved it! I purchased a pre-owned and keep in mind its February 2023. My watch is a 2018 manufacturing date excellent condition with box paper warranty card. Paid $26,850 U.S. from what I could see I got a fairly good deal!
Great video! I picked up a perfect condition 116655 recently for ~30k USD. I was waiting on the 126655 at my local AD (in NYC) but they haven't seen any in over 12 months. Either way once I got the strap adjusted the watch fits perfectly and I love it.
I say I’m not a Rolex fanboy but I do like that one (and a couple of others)...Shhh don’t tell anyone. I walked past a jewellers in Wetherby (York’s) and saw one in the window plus some other high end pre-owned watches. I was just making enquires as to there website so I could look at my leisure when the assistant took it out of the window to show me (I never asked), it was priced at over 18k so I did not try it on but you are correct in the flesh it’s really nice. Still think it’s a little confused a blinged up tool watch is a bit like giving a Landrover defender a gold wrap BUT it sure is nice. 😍
Stunning watch . I nearly bought the 42 white gold at the start of the year but I declined hoping that they would bring out a rose gold 42 this year but this year has kind o went tits up so hopefully next year Rolex will do it 👍
I do like this 40 mm. I did find the rose gold, just a bit to bright for my liking so I bought the 42mm white gold which is more low key. It goes a bit more under the radar. The 42mm is bigger, the dial is bigger and it is heavy. I like the rubber bracelet as it is so comfortable but it is also not going to get scratched up. It also tones down the overall affect of it being precious metal. Very happy with my 42mm yacht-master white gold.
I have a lot of affection for the Yacht-Master range as my first Rolex was the YM 40 with the sunburst blue dial - I’ve had that for a few years now and it makes for a great summer watch thanks to the sunburst blue dial and the bezel. I find it can straddle casual and formal a bit more effectively than a Submariner, and I’m glad Rolex has a line that seems to provide them with more freedom to experiment, without offending the tastes of people who expect a Submariner or GMT to look a certain way. I do think the Yacht-Master 2 is a step too far though.
Interesting to hear your buying experience. It gives me hope for all of the models that are currently un-obtainable, one day they may be easier to get.
Certainly a beauty to behold for sure, the matte bezel contrast against the rose gold is just stunning. I live in Bournemouth and often browse through the window at Charles Fox however I've heard mixed reviews and curious to know why you won't use them again?
I live in the states and will be purchasing one of these probably in late February. What should I expect to pay for a quality used unit with original box and paperwork? I've seen anything between $26,500 - $29,000 U.S.
I’m not a big fan of the new sport Rolex’s, they are too chunky for my taste, and the engraved interior ring makes for me smaller the dial. Maybe I’m a nostalgic type of man the last “sport” Rolex I bought was a 16520 that was unsold in a Rolex AD in Portugal in 2011. My wife got a 268655 and she is quite happy because is a comfortable watch with the shine, although she steal quite often my Omega 2531.80 with the aqua terra blue rubber strap. You have an amazing collection sir, quite a gem and with such a cool owner.
"Only water resistant to 100 meters." How many people are certified to dive 'deeper' than 100m, I wonder. I mean, a Rolex Submariner is waterproof to 300m, and Rolex is said to make almost 100,000 of them every year. How many Sub owners drive to 300m? :)
Nice review. I have the YM40 Dark Rhodium dial and really love the look and feel. I would consider adding the updated version of your watch (126655) which comes with the glide lock clasp.
It’s a good looking model that’s sadly marred by two issues: 1. Tiny gap between its strap and case is simply unacceptable. It puzzles me why Rolex doesn’t just equip it with Rubber B / Everest-like strap..? It can also easily be reinforced with metal structure. 2. No Easylink / Glidelock means that getting perfect fit in changing weather condition will prove challenging. Both issues shouldn’t deter anyone to buy it though. Swapping its bracelet to Everest rubber strap is a simple fix that just about anyone can do at a fair price.
1- I completely agree, why? Also I hate what they are doing with the rubber version of the Daytona, Sky Dweller... I hate it 2- on the new version of this watch there is the glidelock, so maybe there is on this one as well
Nice watch and a different look for Rolex. You do see them in AD windows due to the relatively high asking price. I’ve taken a good look in an AD and that strap is amazingly soft and pliable on wrist. Apparently the platinum bezel versions are extremely easy to mark and getting them put back pristine is very expensive. Nearly pulled the trigger on the grey and blue dial but all that gloss and shine put me off as I don’t like to baby my watches. Do you get your watches serviced? I’d imagine if a bunch of them come up for service together it’s going to be eye watering! Nice problems to have I guess.
@@TheWatchGuysTV thanks. I noticed the prices have been fluctuating like the stock market. I've been eyeing a Rolex Hulk for about a year, right now the price is crazy.
I’ve bought the new glide lock 2021 model, pictures and video doesn’t do it justice, you have to hold it in your hands then it’s wow. It’s a sleeper.Lionel Messi signed his PSG contract wearing one.
I own a datejust 36mm 116233 onyx dial and really like yacht master because I come in 37mm for my little men wrists hopefully to own one by the end of the years to celebrate my accomplishment for this year
I bought my Yacht Master 40 Blue face in 2015 with the platinum bezel and its absolutely stunning when you see it in bright sunshine and still think so now. At the time there was only the blue face or white face and felt special. Totally agree with you about the gold ii and don't even see it as part of the same range. The only thing I have never understood is why the blue face doesn't get more love, the Platinum bezel and red second hand look amazing against the sunburst blue face and there is nothing blingey about it.... Maybe it's me because I also have a black face Milgauss and think that is one of the best looking Rolexes full stop...... and that's also hated by many......
Blue dial YM is stunning, esp with that red hand. I personally love the Rhodium YM with the blue hand. I also have the black face Milgauss, but I think I prefer the white with orange.
@@TheWatchGuysTV Yes agree, the white face is very cool. It amazes me how much hate the Milgauss gets....don't understand it. I'm now being tempted by the multi coloured Oysters that have come out......
It’s the Patek aquanaut of the Rolex collection. A misunderstood watch for now, but won’t be for long. Like the aquanaut, it’s not flashy and flies under the radar. It’s for the wealthy individual who doesn’t want the attention of an all gold Rolex. The first Rolex to have the oysterflex strap will be of historical significance many years from now.
Another awesome video! I just put a deposit on the YM 40mm 126622 blue dial. It’s going to take about 2 months to get here. What are your thoughts on that watch?
The Yacht-Master is my favourite Rolex model, especially the platinum, rhodium and blue dial ones. I own the platinum 116622, my first Rolex so extra special to me. Couldn't get it out of my head since I first saw its forefather 16622 in a dealer's window in Brighton back in 2003. Finally managed to get my hands on the upgraded 116622 in 2015. Not a fan of the coppery rose gold though. Also, the rubberised bracelet detracts from the elegance and refinement of the YM. Still a great piece of course just not a fan of RG on rubber.
I found C Fox rude, dismissive, and seemed disinterested in developing an ongoing relationship. I guess they just like to look after their own. They openly laughed in my face when I said I collected steel sports Rolexes, and never once called me back. I went to Laings in Southampton - completely different approach, now my preferred choice - have bought many models from them in a short space of time.
Hi Damian, thanks for another great video! Question... what size wrist do you have? Trying to get a comparison to my wrist for the great watches you have. Thanks.
Yachmaster 11..too Caddyshack. That's so cruel. I love mine. Now I'll never be able to wear it again. But I'm not a fan of yours. When my chiropractor bought one without knowing what he'd bought it put me of it... nothing against my chiro. Have to admit I was known to wear a blue blazer with gold buttons. As always a great review. When will you give us a review on your Daytona.
Great video as usual. I am actually a big fan of this yacht master 40 I think it’s beautiful. But like you said it is very different from your traditional Rolex sports watch. I am also a big fan of how the oysterflex looks.
I think that the that the Yacht Master 40 is the best, yet most underappreciated modern Rolex. The case design is beautiful, elegant and sporty at the same time. My AD had once offered me this rose gold version but I ended up getting the blue dial YM. I loved it so much that I recently bought the Rhodium YM too. I'm so annoyed with Rolex for making the white gold YM in 42 mm. It's stunning but too big in my opinion.
I am searching for the yacht master 40mm slate dial . yours is interesting . a agree the white yacht master is , not the most attractive piece. how many watches are in your stable ? be safe. ~ JDS/CT
This is one of Rolex’s best watches. Very underrated.

My first gold Rolex, bought it right after it was released and I still love it!
I like the yacht master 40 with the sleight grey dial with the blue text the best out of the whole range.
I love this watch, got mine from my AD early 2019 at an awesome discount, because it had been sitting in the case for almost all of 2018.

As a rapper who owns this in White gold - this isn’t blingy at all! I wear this when I am being low-key!
OMG that's a really beautiful time piece for a rolex yacht master in your collection damian 👍
I wondered why the Rolex Yacht-Master is undervalued. The clock is stunning.
It is easily one of the best looking rolex watches

Im getting this one but with the diamond dial. I found an authorized dealer that put a custom order in for me
Stopped by my AD a few days ago and they had one in stock. Beautiful watch and fit me perfectly. Thinking about it......
Just bought one and on its way. I was surprised to see it wasn’t marked up astronomically like all other models.
Yes, it's still just above list, which is a nice surprise for a Rolex
I do like this 40 mm. I did find the rose gold, just a bit to bright for my liking so I bought the 42mm white gold which is more low key. It goes a bit more under the radar.

Sounds like the right choice, Noel - congrats
Beautiful review. I'm a big fan of the Yachtmaster, specially with the rhodium dial. So understated and yet 😍
It really is!
You should defo buy the blue face stainless steel. Looks like a £15k watch on the wrist. As for the Oyster Flex - Give me the 42mm version.

Thanks, Mike
I like that, looks non-bling with the rubber strap. I can imagine the cost to replace the strap 😱
its pure class. stunning watch and amazing rubber band, the best rubber band you can buy. they've put the glidelock on the latest one I think

Do you think this will keep its value very well? I think I first noticed this watch by tennis player Dominic Thiem.
It hasn’t so far, but I’ve noticed prices climbing now, perhaps because it’s discontinued

Yes I love that model too
What would you think if a guy picked up a ym in 37mm, quite like the rhodium but skinny wrist means 40mm looks a bit out of place
Don’t know if you’ve tried a diver in 40mm before but a 37mm diver looks REALLY small because the actually dial will be smaller because of the bezel.
Love this watch and it’s white gold big brother
I’d love one in my dreams
Yah another week and another watch video! Awesome
Glad you like them!

37mm is way too small for my wrist.

Great video as usual. I am actually a big fan of this yacht master 40 I think it’s beautiful. But like you said it is very different from your traditional Rolex sports watch. I am also a big fan of how the oysterflex looks.
If only it had solid end links like the Daytona on oysterflex
Available with a discount????😮
Which of the 3 sizes is your model? I have small wrist but would love one - I'm saving already 😊
40
42 is superb
I think that the that the Yacht Master 40 is the best, yet most underappreciated modern Rolex.
The case design is beautiful, elegant and sporty at the same time. My AD had once offered me this rose gold version but I ended up getting the blue dial YM. I loved it so much that I recently bought the Rhodium YM too.
I'm so annoyed with Rolex for making the white gold YM in 42 mm. It's stunning but too big in my opinion.
Couldn't agree more!
will definitley go up
In terms of the clasp, does it have a few mm adjustment like my submariner?
I am searching for the yacht master 40mm slate dial . yours is interesting . a agree the white yacht master is , not the most attractive piece. how many watches are in your stable ? be safe. ~ JDS/CT
