Yachtmaster has one great advantage - case design. It combines maxi dial with older case. It makes it much, much more wearable than bulky Sub or GMT with maxi case. And it is not affected by this crazy hypy. And you can actually buy it, without waiting. Steel with blue dial is my favorite. I prefer it over sub. And finding that some might hate it makes me like it even more 🙃

Ya a lot of people would like it because of the case shape I imagine. Although it's not exactly the same as the older pre-ceramic cases, it is a bit slimmer than the Sub and GMT case.

@@JustBlueFish case is similar to datejust, with curves on left side and lugs pointing down. In real life it makes huge difference for guy with 6inch wrist. I had two subs, batman, explorer ii 40mm, explorer 39mm and datejust 36. Yachtmaster wears more like datejust than submariner. I just love it. And more elegant look make it unique to my eyes. I have quite versatile collection, from gshock to vacheron. Yachtmaster is the only rolex that I really fell in love with and found its place in my watchbox 🙃

Nothing in this video is true. I own a Date Just, Submariner, and YM40 blue. By far the Yacht Master 40 blue is my absolute favourite and it’s such an elegant beautiful piece to sport with jeans or even smart casual. I guarantee the YM40 will be on the endangered supply list within the next couple years. Demand is picking up and supply is shortening, just try and find one without waiting 8-12 months from today.

So I find this entire conversation hilarious. I bought the Yacht-master in 2009. I owned a Daytona which I loved, but I sold it and bought a massively expensive AP Skeleton watch. Since, I've then I bought an AP diver watch in ceramic case. I wear the AP diver daily and put away the Yachtmaster -- never to be seen in years. I've since pulled out the Yachtmaster and have loved it. I am NOT a Rolex guy or care much about watches like you folks -- so I guess I'm not a good fit for this thread -- but I know what I like -- and I don't get the big hate-on for the Yacht-master as a simple guy. Anyway, like you said, we're all entitled to our opinions. I like my AP watches and I like my Yacht-master. So, whatever. My opinion? Your way too deep into this stuff... Most people would look at the Yacht-master as a nice watch without worrying if it goes 100m or 300m -- just like the rest of the Rolex line. Have fun debating.

Personally, not only that I don't hate it, but I consider it the most elegant, thus most desirable of all Rolex sport watches. But, the reason for "hatred" (a strong word, but there you go) is quite simple - YM is the "middle of the road" watch, with sporty design cues (rotating bezel, 40mm case), but with water resistance equal to non-diver Rolex watches (100m, just like Datejust, Day-Daye...etc.) Plus, its overall design is very smooth, even borderline gaudy, especially on full gold and two-tone models. That being said, it is the only surviving sporty Rolex WITHOUT supercase, and it pleases me to see its curvy lugs and, in my opinion, more proportionate case design. The bottom line is that YM is well made, robust and very capable sport watch that could be used as a dress piece as well...so, what's not to like?

I own the 40 mm Rhodium Dial Yachtmaster. I actually love it for WHAT it is. A more luxurious atypical Submariner laced with platinum. I don’t like ALL the iterations of the watch but they are at least unique. It just seems (although I love the iconic Sub) EVERYONE has or wants a Submariner. The Yachtmaster is very very niche but I love that. Guy is correct- it’s a divisive watch. Some love it some hate it. To me it lies somewhere in the middle for Rolex. Not the nicest yet far from the ugliest. It certainly beats the boring Oyster Perpetual, the ugly as sin Airking and the mediocre Milgauss , the absurdly over priced Pearlmaster and the forgotten Cellini’s. But it’s certainly not as iconic as the Daytona, Day-Date, Sub, Seadweller or any GMT. It’s a 90’s latecomer and didn’t resonate with everyone but I believe it will be appreciated even more in time. The YM2 is an odd duck. And deserves a whole other video lol. Keep it up Guy - love the videos man!

Hi Guy, I’d like to hear your opinion on this two years later as it seems the Yacht-Master has gained momentum since then. The blue dial YM was my grail watch and I was lucky enough to get one at retail from an AD in March this year after being on the waitlist for only 2 months (my first Rolex purchase). IMO it’s a much better looking watch that the Sub, GMT or Daytona and given grey market premiums, the YM is actually cheaper than those other models.

It's a magnificent watch - especially the blue dial version. I would say it's a watch that stands out and grabs attention, but without being too flashy or 'blingy'. For me the Achilles heel is the lack of glide-lock adjustability. But for me that actually goes for _all_ Rolex watches that don't have either a micro-adjustable bracelet or a rubber strap. (I can't understand why adjustability to an exact fit isn't considered a standard feature for all luxury watches.)

We can already agree on the fact that the Yacht Master II is an outsider for most people. As for the Yacht Master, although I do not own one, is perhaps one of my favorite in the Rolex catalogue. It's a dressy sports watch that you can, as you said, wear for a cocktail on a yacht, it is more refined than a submariner (case design, platinum bezel etc.) which is made to be a tool watch. Much like the Daytona, for me the Yacht Master is elegantly sporty and if it lacks performance compared to a sub, it makes it up with its beautiful lines and distinguished dial. Moreover, it is available and the fact that it is unliked by many or maybe less popular, makes it even more attractive to me.

The yacht master has many things going for it. First, when you get the platinum bezel stainless watch, you get a beautiful blue dial, platinum dial or Rhodium dial. Nice compared to just Black dial for stainless Sub. The other thing it has going for it for those that want it is polished center links for a dressier look. And the best part about this watch is that it comes in several smaller sizes for smaller men and women. So if you always wanted a Submariner but are a very small person, there is a solution for you. I would say that makes it worth it in the lineup.

Where is the submariner more affordable than the Yacht-master? Premiums over retail on the submariner makes it more expensive. And this one has a solid platinum bezel. In my opinion the Yacht-master is more refined; after all, since inception, Rolex designed this watch to be a high end and better submariner.

The Yacht Master is different, it's strangely understated yet completely over the top at the same time. At the end of the day it what fits your wrist. I had originally set my heart for a Submariner but my wrist didn't agree with 40mm case. I ended up going with the 37mm dark rhodium Yacht Master. The bezel is more practical to use day to day on the YM being bidirectional being it's not considered LSE. I find the embossed bezel to be perfectly legible and usable. Another notch in the Sub's corner is that the secondary price is insane. The YM isn't as popular and it's shows in the secondary market pricing.

This is a great modern sports watch alternative to Nautilus and Royal Oak. Its very comfortable and many people will be happy with its comfort wearing more like a Daytona.

I am proud to be a watch snob. A watch snob is a person with a strong opinion on what he or she likes and dislikes with a well informed horological background. When l am eventually called a snob and much worse it is because the other person is at a loss for words and is so frustrated they were in the wrong. Cheers

@@JustBlueFish well I really like bezels with relief, the name doesn't bother me at all, I also like the Junghans Meister Pilot and the Omega Seamaster, both of those have "scalloped" bezels. I would also get a Jacob & Co. Astronomia Sky platinum.... So basically I wear what I want... 😉 I get your take on it too. 👍👍

Three months ago, I saw 4 different subs worn by people in the span of 45 minutes. There is nothing special about the Sub. I agree with Thimble that subs are for unsophisticated lemmings. The Rolex sub has been reduced to McDonalds luxury along with coach bags and Burrbery shirts.

I like the Yachmaster , always did. I have the two tone Everose and would like the stainless with blue dial one day. To each his own. I hate the Yachmaster 2. Rolex is forcing the Yachmaster on me to get me into the Batgirl and Pepsi club! 😁

I have a Yach -master and I never wear it. A cool fit I knew had one so I bought it. I love my OG Submariner.. I even bought the 50th Woth the green bezel and don’t like that. OG Sub for life, it matches everything and is understated.

I had this exact watch and it’s a stunner. I think the problem is you can easily obtain this watch making it in my opinion not as desirable. We want what we can’t have. This is more interesting than a sub in my opinion.

Many cannot afford it so they tend to want ones they can afford. Shortage of other watches are also making them more desirable.

I disagree slightly, but appreciate your view. I don’t own a Yachtmaster, and may never, because I have more than a couple. But if I could own one watch, just one, it just may be the Yachtmaster, because it fits with almost any occasion. But because I have watches for different occasions, it’s not for me, but I do like it.
