Rolex Yachtmaster - 116655 is this normal ?
Hi, I recently bought the Yachtmaster in everose gold for myself and noticed thath the inside of the clasp is not colored, but it seems like sand blasted or something like that. Its not gold plated and i wanted to know if it is normal?

I also have this watch... the rose gold is throughout on mine albeit not polished on the inside of the clasp where the strap connects to it so begs the question... where you get it from and do you have paperwork?

I got it from a friend of mine, i do not have any paperwork but i am able to verify the serial number. Maybe he got an aftermarket clasp.

When you say not coloured do you mean not polished/glossy? Your whole clasp looks the same colour to me?
Edit - yours looks the same as this on my monitor

Yes, sand blasted surface on the inside of the clasp is normal.
