This is one of my fave subs and has a load of presence without being overly blingy.Never thought I'd pull the trigger on a plat sub.Somehow the PCLs does it for me

What is that is not a Sub for $500 Alex?

smallcandle · 27 August 2011, 12:32 AM

I don't get it...

Oh, and you still haven't pulled the trigger on a platinum sub.

besview · 27 August 2011, 12:33 AM

It is a submariner platinum as opposed to the black sub..just another variation of the sub I believe?

Could have fooled me.

leemozoid · 27 August 2011, 12:34 AM

Is this the rare version that has the misspelling of "Submariner" as "Yacht-Master"?

dddrees · 27 August 2011, 12:34 AM

Actually it is a Yacht Master, it's not a Sub.

Nice watch indeed.

usbzoso · 27 August 2011, 12:35 AM

thats not a sub at all ... what you have is a yacht-master

besview · 27 August 2011, 12:37 AM

Oh well,yachtmaster 16622 is the proper description I guess..Sorry to have led you all on a merry-go-round...Just like a little variation,like a pet name I give it....

usbzoso · 27 August 2011, 12:40 AM

Subs are 300m water resistant ... YM are only 100m ... can't really call that a Sub

Right... kind of like how I refer to my Sub as a Daytona. Just a pet name...

Don't worry; you didn't.

smallcandle · 27 August 2011, 12:50 AM

Not unforgiving. Just sensitive to misleading thread titles and misinformed members.

MortgageGuy · 27 August 2011, 12:52 AM

Love the YM, great pics too

Come on guys, lets play nice with the OP

besview · 27 August 2011, 12:54 AM

Now it should please EVERYONE

Don't worry. The original subs were actually 100m WR. And the yatchmaster really is similar, was based on the sub. Just more blingy.

Stunning watch.

Now,thats what I'd call a reply that makes a load of sense

Puffy · 27 August 2011, 01:08 AM

i guess you could argue it is a fancied up Sub.. i put it in the Sub category as well

No kidding. The difference functionality wise between a sub and a YM is virtually nil. The differences are 99.25% cosmetic.

Except for the thinner crystal, is there any difference with a Sub?? A fullsize YM has the same crown as the Sub, right? So, i am not sure what the big deal is with the other members in this thread.

So, IMO, it is a more expensive sub with superior material with a thinner profile (aka more comfy) and less WR. And i seriously doubt any Sub owners ever reach beyond 100m under water to boast about it!

mboverst · 27 August 2011, 01:20 AM

Back on topic...It's a beautiful piece and one of my favorite models! Congrats on the pickup! The main difference between the YM and Sub IMO is the perfect weight and presence it has on the wrist.

normandy · 27 August 2011, 01:23 AM

nice watch. You should get one!

I forgive your mistake buddy, some seem to be cranky today.
