Just bought a yachtmaster... my 2nd Rolex but first bought and paid for in full by myself (25th Birthday present to me!).
Surprised at how fragile the watch is compared to my 1984 inherited sub... have already started to build patina on the bezel! Bonus photo of the watch of the open seas at sea....... not sure if this is what Rolex meant however! |

The patina on the bezel of these watches is usually nothing more than greasy finger marks that show up on the frosted part of the bezel.
Easily removed by gently wiping with a Q-Tip that has been briefly dunked in acetone. It won't effect the metal at all and will remove the finger marks that dull down the bezel, restoring it to its original lustre. Simples! |

Hi all!
As promised in July here is my 16622 full set. Received in August and still in the box with unadjusted bracelet due to health problems. Bought it in Germany and loved the amazing conditions of the watch. Never serviced and the owner told me the watch was a weekend wearer. The platinum dial is beautiful. After thinking about buying the blue dial I'm sure this one was the right decision. Sorry for the pics, the watch is dirty and full of fingerprints.    Have a nice day!!

Question for YM owners:
I'm considering a blue or rhodium gray YM and am curious how much I should be concerned about the platinum bezel being prone to scratches? I've heard it can be an issue. For context, I currently own a white Milguass, and am considering adding a YM, EXP II, or Sub. Thanks in advance! |

Loving mine!... my only minor(almost trivial) dislike is not enough contrast between the bezel and the watch on the all gold model unlike a sub etc...
