Some interesting facts about the YM bezels!!

Hi guys,

First off, all YM bezels (irrespective of the model) are made from either PLATINUM or YELLOW GOLD - no other metal!!

The YM-II in YELLOW GOLD has a CERAMIC bezel.



The YM-II in WHITE GOLD has a PLATINUM bezel.



The standard YM has either a PLATINUM bezel as in my Platty or a YG bezel as in the TT and full gold versions.

The ENTIRE bezel is made of the precious metal. The insert is an integrated part of the bezel and cannot be separated from the outer serrated bezel.

If a bezel replacement is required, the WHOLE bezel has to be replaced - NOT just the insert like you do with the anodized Aluminium inserts of the Subs and GMTs.

JJ

All Platinum....outer bezel as well as insert!!



All 18 K gold....outer bezel as well as insert!!
