Watch Info
Manufacturer: Rolex
Model: Yacht-Master 40
Condition: Very Good (Pre-Owned)
Reference: 126655
Year: 2021
Box: Yes
Papers: Yes
Accessories: Complete Set. Includes Rolex inner and outer boxes, 2021 Warranty Card, manuals, green chronometer hangtag.
Notes: The 126655 is the Yacht-Master 40 in 18k Everose gold — the definitive expression of the Yacht-Master collection in precious metal and the reference that most directly connects the line's nautical sport identity to the material prestige of full 18k gold construction. The 40mm Everose gold case is paired with a bidirectional rotatable 60-minute bezel in Everose gold with a raised matte Cerachrom insert, and the black dial creates a striking contrast against the warmth of the Everose gold case — a combination that is bold, coherent, and unmistakably purposeful. Powered by the in-house Calibre 3235 with 70-hour power reserve, the 126655 combines the technical substance of a genuine sport reference with a case size and proportion that wears with exceptional versatility across contexts.
Condition Assessment
Overall Condition: Pre-Owned - Very Good. This 2021 example has been carefully worn and presents in very good cosmetic condition. The Everose gold case retains its overall factory profile with honest signs of use. Note: A light professional polish would significantly improve the overall presentation of this example.
Dial, Hands, & Crystal: The black dial is pristine. The applied Everose gold indices and hands are in perfect condition. The sapphire crystal is mint and free of any chips or scratches.
Case & Bezel: The 40mm Everose gold case shows honest signs of careful use. The Everose gold bezel with Cerachrom insert is in excellent condition — no chips or contact marks on the ceramic. Note: A small ding is present on the lug edge at the 7 o'clock position, as shown in the accompanying photographs. This is a minor contact mark consistent with careful use and is fully visible in our detailed photography. Additionally, a personal engraving is present on the caseback. The polished and brushed case surfaces would benefit from a light professional polish to return to factory-fresh condition.
Bracelet & Clasp: The integrated Everose gold Oysterflex bracelet is in excellent condition. The Oysterlock safety clasp functions perfectly and shows minimal surface marks consistent with careful use.

Why the 126655 Black Dial is the Yacht-Master at Its Most Striking
The Yacht-Master 40 in Everose gold with a black dial occupies a unique position in the Rolex precious metal sport watch landscape — a reference that delivers the full technical specification of a genuine nautical instrument in a material that ages with exceptional character. The black dial against Everose gold is the most visually commanding configuration in the 126655 lineup, creating a depth and contrast that the lighter dial variants cannot replicate. Everose gold, Rolex's proprietary 18k rose gold alloy with platinum added to resist fading, develops a warmth over time that complements the black dial's depth in a way that grows more compelling with every year of wear. At 40mm, the 126655 achieves the rare combination of precious metal presence and genuine daily wearability.
At $29,495, this example represents a meaningful opportunity to acquire the 126655 black dial at a price that reflects its current cosmetic condition honestly — a watch that will present beautifully following a light professional polish, with the caseback engraving and lug mark fully disclosed and documented in photography. For the collector who values transparency and wants the most striking configuration of Rolex's definitive precious metal sport watch at a compelling price point, this is a strong acquisition.
