Yachtmaster update to maxicase?
Has there been any talk or rumblings of this? Would this not be the next logical step, for us to see at basel 2010?

If I'm honest, there are other models in the range that need work a lot more than the Yachtmaster, my money would be on Rolex leaving it for a few years yet

X2. It's already got a unique case with solid PCL. The clasp is the only "old fashioned" part IMO

Yachtmaster is a perfect watch except an improved clasp and IMO won't be getting the maxi case treatment

I agree, the Yachtmaster is a big $$$ seller for Rolex. It wouldn't surprise me if it got the new bracelet with easy glide upgrade as the current bracelet lets it down badly when compared to the new models. Rolex did upgrade the Daytona bracelet and the old bracelet didn't need fixing IMO so go figure?

I can see a glidelock bracelet upgrade with and maybe even a 43mm version in Platinum/SS. Now that would be a potential purchase item.
