Rolex Yacht-Master 116655 Watch In Everose Gold With Black Ceramic Bezel For 2015
New for 2015, Rolex has debuted a very attractive and sporty new version of the Rolex Yacht-Master that now comes on a new type of strap called Rolex Oysterflex. More on that in a second. This reference 116655 Yacht-Master is 40mm wide but there will also be the 37mm wide ref. 268655 Yacht-Master. Unlike the traditional Yacht-Master that has been known for platinum bezels this new 2015 Yacht-Master model will come equipped with a black Cerachrom (ceramic) bezel. We really love this new black and gold theme for the Yacht-Master that is both luxurious but not blingy.The Rolex Yacht-Master 116655 contains the in-house made caliber 3135 automatic movement while the smaller 268655 contains the 2236 automatic movement. Both are more or less functionally the same being three-hand movements with the date. What is very nice about the new Cerachrom bezel is Rolex's ability to craft it with the markers in relief - which is a new process that we are interested in hearing about. This adds a new cha
Speedy & water
We all know that the Speedmaster is rugged enough for outer space but how far are you willing to your Speedy when it comes to water? Washing hands only, wear it while taking a shower, swimming in the pool,..?Thanks & Cheers!

I'm a new collector and I'm looking to add soon. I've got the BLNR Batman and am thinking of adding either a 5167 Aquanaut or the James Cameron DeepSea Deep Blue. I wear the Batman everyday as it was a wedding gift but want something else, maybe somewhat sporty. I've tried on the deep blue and liked it when I had it on but the more I think about it afterwards the more I want it. On the flip side the5167 is a PP...no explanation needed as it can be a casual or dress watch. I dress up for work so both would work. Love the deep blue even more because it's hard to come by like my batman but something about the PP keeps me interested. Looking for functionality and value over time on these. To make things more interesting I like the rose gold chocolate dial Daytona on leather but think it may be too pretentious with where I'm at career wise as I work in a political corporate environment and gold may send the wrong message. Looking for any advice on the first two mainly.
Gold Sub (116618LB) movement update
I am thinking about picking one of these up.Given Rolex seem to be rolling out new movements should I hold off and wait?
Bought a Rolex at Kays Jewelers and got a Watchfacts report. What do you guys think?
Hey everyone!I normally purchase my watches from small watch dealers. However, I saw this really great Sea Dweller 16600 at Kay's Jewelers and I pulled the trigger.It looks great almost brand new, (see photos). It came with a Watchfacts authenticity report. Have you guys heard of them? I've seen the reports on Amazon when I did a google search. Should I trust these reports?It said my watch was authentic with an aftermarket enhancement, that being the crystal.I took it to my usual watchmaker and he confirmed it's authenticity, so all good there :)What are your thoughts?
