New 126622 yachtmaster

Anyone seen one yet? Besides the new 3235 the case is supposed to be updated with sharper edge work. Really curious if it’s noticeable.

I keep waiting as well. I did tell my AD I am interested in it if one arrives. Blue face.

Really? Interesting. I think the yacht master case is perfect, so I hope they didn't change the lines too much.

I'd imagine it's "changed" the same way the BLRO case was -- and I couldn't see a different holding old and new side-by-side. That said, I'd love to be wrong, if the new case is actually more refined.

The smooth edges was why I like this watch so much. I’ll wait until I see it before I finalize my dislike.

Can somebody who knows how to use a computer do a side by side of the face of the watch so we can see the lugs 116622 v 126622

Rolex is really making it easy for themselves at service, only straight angles. I suppose it guarantees higher quality. Talked to a Rolex service watchmaker that said they’d gotten a new polishing machine that does it automatically.

I don't see any difference in the lugs. Can someone confirm there is a new (slightly) case design?

Saw one this past weekend at my AD. Didn’t notice much difference but there wasn’t an older version around to compare. Nice blue dial though

I am also looking for the new one. I was going to buy the 116622 last week and decided to wait for the 126622. If the new one starts to sell more than the MSRP, I’ll just get 116622.

My AD did not know when he will get the 126622. So, I wait...

they raised the price from the 116622 when they updated the movement. It's not a lot, 500 i think?

Lugs look slightly sharper but the case profile is as curvy as ever, so all good to me.

Still waiting from my AD. 2-3 weeks ago they got in a 116622 and offered to me but it was rhodium and I want the blue. I’m hoping in the fall. They aren’t showing up anywhere on social media either. Anytime someone tags a 126622 it isn’t actually the new model.

Two weeks ago my AD got one. He offered it to me and I to turn down as it was not the rhodium dial I wanted. Kicking myself for not taking the blue dial as I would have been happy with the blue dial as well.

I am not even seeing the new one offered by the Trusted Sellers here either.

You sure it was the new one? They don’t seem to be anywhere yet in the world.

That’s what the sales person said. I never checked it personally.

It's my understanding the new YM's will have the newer version of the glide lock, as well.
