SF Bay Area Newbie!
Hello Forum Members,
Thank you all for your insightful posts and reviews. My wife and I will both be purchasing our first Rolex timepieces this year. I am interested in the new 116610LN Sub. My lovely wife fell in love with the mid-size Yacht Master 168622 (35mm). She is interested in a pre-owned model and I'm wondering if one year (or years) is better than the others. She is currently looking at a 1998 model and a 2001. Based on all the research I've done the movement is the same but there may be an issue with the band. I'd appreciate any input to help her with her search. Again, hello to all, especially my fellow northern Californians. I am very pleased to be a new member of this forum. Jay |

Welcome to TRF Jay!
I'm glad you're enjoying the site and it's wealth of info... The YM line is unchanged since its inception in the early 90's..(except for some minor font changes) Good luck on your hunt and purchase, Rob.
