Individual sale results behind our data, from eBay and auction houses. Each watch differs in condition and set.

Forum rows are posts on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums and WatchUSeek that the seller marked sold. The amount is the listed price when marked sold, not a confirmed sale price, and forum rows do not feed our price.

Median price per month or quarter. A point needs at least 3 records in its month or quarter; a gap in a line means too few records, and nothing is filled in. Forum prices are the price a seller listed on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums or WatchUSeek when the post was marked sold, not a confirmed sale price. Historical context only: these series do not feed the price shown above.

About the Yacht-Master 42 226627

The Rolex Yacht-Master 42 226627 is a reference in the Rolex Yacht-Master collection. Rolex has made it since 2023. From our catalog: a 42 mm case in RLX titanium; bezel: Bidirectional rotating bezel with matte black Cerachrom insert and raised numerals; dial: Black (lacquer); movement: Calibre 3235. The specifications below list every fact we have sourced for this reference; anything we could not source is marked as not known.

What the sales say

Counting only completed sales, 123 sit inside the window that sets the figure (109 eBay sales and 14 auction results), and the dated list covers March 2024 to October 2026. August 2026 saw the most activity, 22 sales in a single month. Hammer results come from Grailzee, Phillips and Loupe This. Confidence is high: plenty of recent, consistent sales, and a backtest record to match. The newest sale is under two weeks old. Prices have been steady: a spread of about 4% earns the Stable label. A fair price for the 226627 can sit anywhere from about 25% below to 25% above the midpoint. It trades often, so older sales fade quickly (a half-life of 30 days).

Year on year, the median sale is down 5.1% (104 sales against 19). The record only reaches back to March 2024, short of the five years a long-run figure needs. eBay and auction buyers have paid much the same for the 226627 lately: the two medians differ by about 4%, from 91 eBay sales against 13 auction results.

Without box and papers, the same 226627 is worth about 12% less on the ratio we measured for its collection (from 12 watch-only sales). The listed sales split 78 full sets to 0 watch-only and 4 partial, with 69 unworn; the rest gave no set details. Unworn full sets sell about 5% above worn ones across our data, so an unworn example sits above the headline. Cheapest in the list: July 23, 2026, on eBay, set not stated, about 47% below the worth-about figure. Dearest: June 15, 2024, on eBay, full set, about 40% above the worth-about figure.

Shoppers comparing like with like often look next at Yacht-Master 37 268655 price, Yacht-Master 16628 price and Yacht-Master 116655 price.
