Yacht Master Rhodium Dial

Share your admiration for the Rhodium variation.
I love mine.
I have a Zblue as well. The YM is a more comfortable wearing piece.

I’ve lusted after a Z-blue for a while, but ended up with the YM since it’s more “practical”, haha. It is super comfortable, very sexy, and I always get compliments.

I think the dark Rhodium dial version is making the Yachtmaster line much more attractive to a larger audience. I think it’s finally finding its place and becoming accepted. It’s also a nice change from the maxi case.

i'm torn between this and the blue dial !!!, both stunning, feel this is a little more dressy the blue a little more sporty?

I love my Zblue too but the contrast of that rhodium dial and bezel is tough to beat. I'd love to try one on. Enjoy....

I fell hard for the blue dial Yacht Master, but the rhodium was my second choice. It’s very subtle and sophisticated.

Does anyone know if there is an official Rolex name for the Dark Rhodium seconds hand blue color?

Cobalt?
Bermuda?
Baby?

I usually see the YM in the display case at my local AD. One time I did ask him to order me a blue dial one. But, ended up buying the TT blue dial SubC LB.

My hesitation has always been the bezel. Not sure how shiny that bezel is. I am afraid that it may limit the versatility of YM in my collection. Then again, I had the same sentiments about the TT SubC and got over it very quickly.

YM is still on my list and seeing pictures posted by members is not helping to curb my desire... you guys are just enablers...
