Someone on Instagram just did it and put the Yachtmaster on a matching bracelet:

From the comments they had to drill new holes into the case to make the bracelet fit. Nevertheless it looks stunning and I hope Rolex will introduce something similar soon...

Wow, I like it a lot more than I thought I would. Even though that bracelet is a poor fit for the YM. The end links are too big.

Wow, that looks awful. The fit is terrible and the gold is a different shade

I have to say the RG OF YM (lol that’s a lot of letters) started to grow on me a bit late last year - and I almost bought one on two occasions- but...it’s still a YM...

I think a WG bracelet on the new 42mm would be a hit — I’m just not a huge fan of the Rolex RG- it’s too coppery for me. I prefer APs RG.

And drilling into the case....

In the spirit of a mockup thread, I think if executed well this watch would look really good. Last few days of Instagram searching made me realize I really like rose gold Rolex watches haha

Looks amateur, end links protrude, big scratch on the bottom left end link, colour and finish look different, although that could be the lighting. Do it right on don't do it.

Also, having drilled new holes in the case, I wonder if Rolex would still accept to service the watch. They don't like mods.

I was in the same boat, and then this happened

Nice concept and would likely draw a following if it were stock. The black creates an exceptional contrast that sets it apart.
