Rolex 116655 Yacht Master 40 18K Rose Gold Black Dial

Introduced at Baselworld 2015, the Rolex 116655 Yacht‑Master marked a bold evolution in the line, combining a 40 mm 18 ct Everose gold Oyster case with the debut of the black Cerachrom bezel and the innovative Oysterflex bracelet. Powered by the time‑tested Calibre 3135 automatic movement, this model offers COSC‑certified precision and enduring reliability. The matte black dial, a first for the Yacht‑Master, is paired with Chromalight hour markers and hands, enhancing legibility and lending a modern, stealth‑luxury aesthetic. With 100 meters of water resistance and a robust Triplock crown, it retains the sporty robustness expected of Rolex sports watches. The marriage of precious metal and high‑performance elastomer bracelet underscores its dual nature as both a tool watch and a high‑luxury statement. Collectors value the 116655 for its pioneering use of materials and its striking contrast of Everose gold and matte black elements. Its introduction represented Rolex’s forward‑looking design direction, making it a standout in the Yacht‑Master lineage and a compelling addition for discerning enthusiasts.
