    I’m a sucker for subtle hints of color. The blue / teal second hand and Yacht-Master label are just great!

    I wish it were called something else. The ultimate Lexus, boat shoes and khaki shorts watch. But it does look really good.

    I purchased the Rhodium dialed Yachmaster back in 2021 as my second purchase from my AD. Prior to this, I wasnt a fan of most Rolex watches, in particular the ones I always saw in the wild (the Sub, the Explorer, and a variety of fluted DJs). It was the first watch I wanted from the brand, but I ended up purchasing a domed bezel DJ to grease the wheels (since sold).

    Following this, I did buy a VTNR earlier this year (I’m left handed) but still think the Rhodium DJ with the blued seconds hand is their best looking watch. The way the light catches the dial doesn’t happen on many of their other watches. What do you all think?

    These always look fake to me idk if it’s the bezel or what. The dial and hand color is gorgeous

      Might look fake also bc the bezel is always made of gold (or Pt), so it stands out more from the rest of the watch, like it’s possibly tacked on.

    Nothing like a Sub that can’t dive for $2,000 more…

        That’s static pressure – the rating is assuming your watch is sitting in a lab, not on your wrist flailing about underwater. I’ve seen plenty of 100M watches with water damage.

          That doesn’t matter once you get into the screw down crowns. Unless you’re Aquaman and cruising around at like 60mph at depth.

    I prefer the YM’s bezel to the Sub’s. Not a fan of this particular dial colorway though

    This is like: Show me you’re Nord, without telling it… Grey, on grey, on grey… oh, with a hint of blue, on a black background. That!

      It has a very 2010s suburban house flipper aesthetic (make literally everything identical and grey).

    Best looking sports watch for sure, white dial DayDate still takes it for me.
