I just got my 16622 YM and I love it, an opportunity came my way to flip my YM for a two tone 18K submariner...

What do you think, when it comes to value and overall appeal?.

If anyone has some pics if their two tone can you please post them?..thanks

Thanks

Although the TT and black sub looks great, I dont think I would give up the YM .. Just my personal thought

Speed · 16 January 2012, 02:49 PM

I think the Yachtmaster is a silly watch. Not a fan.

The TT Sub is one of the few TT watches I would consider. I like it..as long as the bezel insert did not have the Yellowy colored numbers. Those bug me. I prefer the gold toned.

Ridiculous to say it's a silly watch. Up to you Tom, I prefer the yatchmaster to that Sub.

Have we had any confirmation about the yatchmaster I being discontinued. Yes it is still on the Rolex website, but there is such little attention given to it, all about the Yatchmaster II. Wouldn't be surprised to see it go in the next couple years.

I personally like the 2tone sub and I am not a YG guy at all. I only wear SS. But something about that 2tone sub.........looks great in your pic and its a "does everything well" watch. Not that the YM isn't but IF I had to personally choose 1 or the other I would go sub.

Z-Sub · 17 January 2012, 04:18 PM

Hi Tom,

For a TT, I much prefer the blue 16613. FWIW, my wife who's sitting next to me said the YM would look better on you.

I thought I was the only one who felt this way about the YM. Doesn't look like a real Rolex to me. Kind of like a replica.

masterdinh · 16 January 2012, 02:49 PM

Yachtmaster all the way my friend.

I prefer the Two-Tone Submariner since I'm a yellow gold guy! Both are very nice though.

Lion · 16 January 2012, 03:11 PM

Both are great watches but only you can decide which one you like better.....

T-Rip · 16 January 2012, 03:12 PM

If anyone has some pics of their two tone could you please post them..thanks...

Out of those two the Yachtmaster appeals greatly

where the two tone doesn't do much for me. If you are a yellow gold fan though I can see how the Sub would be attractive to you, it is very nice. Cheers

Feras · 16 January 2012, 03:40 PM

Get the sub, I am that type of guy who wouldn't buy a yachtmaster before buying a boat or even just a jetski :P

tkc324 · 16 January 2012, 03:52 PM

I would keep the ym. Unless its tt blue sub.

experimentjon · 16 January 2012, 03:55 PM

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of the TT sub unless it is worn on a black leather strap--in that case it just looks sweet. But that'd be a waste of all the gold on the bracelet. It's really personal preference, but I'd keep the yachtmaster. I feel like you see fewer yachtmasters on wrists...and I think its the less flashy watch. But to each his own.

Andelain · 16 January 2012, 03:55 PM

I favor the TT sub, but which one do you like best?

I meant to add, I'd give that sub a home if you ever get tired of it.

I'd have a spare.

Great pics...

bayerische · 16 January 2012, 06:22 PM

I wouldn't flip it.

nch209 · 16 January 2012, 06:35 PM

Tough one, but do what works best for you! I really love the YM, however, have never owned one. I have had several 16613s, currently a blue one and like it too. That said, have you considered a 116613- the hollow links on the 16613 might be a bummer for ya...

Just my 2 cents, good luck!

HORNBLOWER · 16 January 2012, 06:50 PM

Never really got the YM, anywho, here's mine

dddrees · 16 January 2012, 08:58 PM

It just depends as to which you like the best. I flipped my YM for a TT Sub Serti.
