The Sub by a mile. While I do like the aesthetics of the YM. I couldn’t get the right fit for some reason. Very strange. Always too tight or too loose.

With the Sub’s GL clasp, you can get the fit really close to perfection. Trust me, the GL is god send.

Agree there. GL is genius.

But otherwise I’m YM. All day.

Geaux Tigers · 26 March 2019, 11:59 AM

Both great but I’d go Subc date

joshinbrooklyn · 26 March 2019, 12:12 PM

There's a new thread somewhere that entire YM lineup has gotten the 3235 movement and has a new reference 126622!

Dompropat · 26 March 2019, 12:44 PM

I'd choose a sub every single time.

Wrist King · 26 March 2019, 08:54 PM

Who you kidding you'll end up with both so dont fret too much now

Go got the YM, Sub is boring ....

SN13 · 26 March 2019, 09:24 PM

Get what you love.

No one has to wear it but you.

CptCanuck · 26 March 2019, 09:30 PM

Get both?

FirstF80InSpace · 26 March 2019, 09:32 PM

I have both. If I had to choose one, I would choose the YM because it's more sleek and fits better than the SubC due to the smaller lugs. You rarely see YM's in the wild, while the SubC is very ubiquitous.

And the bezel being a scratch magnet is a myth. Mine is still minty fresh. The PCL's, on the other hand, is a scratch magnet.

SkyJuice · 26 March 2019, 09:34 PM

Either one is a fine choice. Go with the one the sings more to you.

ADR1982 · 26 March 2019, 09:51 PM

I like the YM. Specifically the rhodium dial version.
Sub is great and all - but is super common and you can find similar looking watches with other brands. The YM has a very distinct look. Which is also its downside - is it a casual watch or a more formal one? Not sure what id wear with it. Not as versatile as sub.

So i suppose for everyday Sub, for 'going out' YM

mistercoach32 · 26 March 2019, 10:41 PM

SubC for me all day long

encarter13 · 26 March 2019, 10:47 PM

If you go with the YM, make sure you get a blue dial. IMHO, it is the winner in the YM line.

cts · 27 March 2019, 02:32 AM

YMII, SS... Subs are a dime a dozen.....

Coolex · 28 April 2019, 08:44 AM

Watches are like coffee... Your tastes are your tastes. Doesn't matter how many people love their coffee black; if you like iced vanilla lattes then order it.

Rogoal · 3 May 2019, 02:35 AM

I vote Yacht. Everyone has a Sub

Brian Page · 3 May 2019, 03:14 AM

Sub for sure

airpeace · 3 May 2019, 03:24 AM

sub all day every day

Never even seen that. That is an amazing watch, stunning.

VicLeChic · 6 May 2019, 12:09 AM

The YM looks so much better than the Sub, to me anyway :-).

Jetski · 6 May 2019, 02:58 AM

blue yachtmaster by a country club mile

CharlesN · 6 May 2019, 04:05 AM

Sub Date every time.

spoilsofwar01 · 6 May 2019, 05:12 AM

Submariner.

kwingy · 6 May 2019, 05:14 AM

If you can find a decent blue pre-owned yachtmaster with a unmarked bezel then I would vote that over a black sub by a long way.

The Sicilian · 9 July 2019, 12:20 PM

I tried on the Subs and knew immediately I didn't like them for me. I tried on the Yachtmaster and said dammit, I can't leave here (local AD) without it!! Especially because they had my dream colors EVEROSE and Chocolate dial is a match made in heaven for my taste. Get what you like best and don't listen to what others like because its your money and you get to enjoy what you love. Forget resale value and scarcity unless your buying to flip or want to trade or upgrade later. Me personally would love great resale which most Rolex's have, but I have never sold something I bought in my life except a car to dealer once. Here is a pick of my new pride and joy! Forza Palermo! 🇮🇹

anthony500 · 10 July 2019, 06:25 AM

YM everyday for me. Be it the blue dial or the rhodium they are both astonishing, fits better , classier , and more rare than the sub

iheartrolexx · 10 July 2019, 06:26 AM

sub

sensui · 10 July 2019, 06:28 AM

The YM wears so much better than a modern sub for me. Much sleeker and something different. Only modern sub I'd pick over a modern YM is the LVC....that dial is just too good.

RJRJRJ · 10 July 2019, 06:40 AM

I've got both, and you can't lose either way.

Sub is the iconic sub, but the YM has a nicer, sleeker case and wears a little better. If I were you I'd just buy the one you like the look of better. I prefer the rhodium dial amongst the SS options.
