Yes! Both 16800, and 16803.
I've been enjoying the Exp ii lately for freediving as well.

Congratulations on finding Nemo! I have not taken my Rolex/Tudor divers diving, stopped diving when my kids came along. Planning to start again now that they are older.

I enjoy looking all of you going into the water with your Rolex watches
I have to admit ...I was always too afraid to do the same.

I used to wear my TT sub then crossed over to a G-Shock Gulfmaster for the built in compass and depth gauge.

I've only had my YM in the ocean; just swimming, not diving.

I'm guessing that the watch's silly "YM" moniker means that Rolex intended for this one to stay near or on the water's surface. Who am I to argue with Rolex?

I laughed at the "you found Nemo" comments! Great to see it being used as intended. I'd like to get a SCUBA certification one day.
