Upgrade DJ41 for YM
Thinking of upgrading my DJ41 for a stainless blue dial yachtmaster. Love the watch, does anyone know if the height of the case is big/tall like the milgauss/airking/sky? Or thin like a DJ. Thanks in advance!

The "Captain America" ym40 bluedial 126622 has a case that is shaped like the daytona. Curvy. Hugs your wrist and wears lower than Daytona. It is taller than DJ I believe.

Definitely wears taller than the DJ, but lower than a Sub.
It’s a comfortable watch. If you wear your watch loose, the DJ will likely be more comfortable for you. |

The Yachtmaster is definitely thinner than the Milgauss or Airking. It is one of the thinner Rolex sport watches. Closer to a datejust in height but a touch heavier because of the platinum bezel.

Yatchmaster is slim indeed. My wife who isn’t big sports a 40mm model with ease. Only 40mm in rolex that works for her. And it’s stunning

I have a GMT II and the YM Slate, the YM feels much smaller, less blocky, and is super comfortable. I'm actually doing the opposite to you. Now I have a Sub, GMT and YM I'm eyeing up DJ41's. From what I can tell the DJ41 & YM are really quite similar.
I gotta reiterate I just LOVE the YM. Its really comfortable. |

Wears very close to my Daytona. Lower profile than a sub. Super comfortable.

I have a DJ II and YM 40.
Obviously the DJ II is bigger than the DJ41, however, the case design is similar. The YM is smaller and wears so nicely. I wear my watch against my wrist in front of the bone and it’s perfect! Keep both if you can that’s a great professional/classic combo that can be worn in so many situations. |

Agree. You will love the YM blue dial. Amazing watch and my most comfortable Rolex.

the YM40 116622 is 11.6mm thick, less than a Sub. I would imagine the 126622 is as thin, if not marginally thinner than the 116622.
