The quality of your videos has just become incredible. New angles, moving shots, great quality audio and very well spoken. Best watch channel by miles!
The video might be, but the content is not. Much broader topics, more watches and interesting historical background of the timepieces. Some of the vintage stuff they cover here is stunning to watch
Ali Alexander You are being too kind to the narrator. There is no clever jab or play on words... it was a mistake. He clearly meant it the other way around.
I used to like 126621, but then I saw this. A perfect size, great movement and the presence tells everything I want it to say. It's not childish nor flashy, yet only you know it's gold and luxury timepiece. The perfect watch that you buy for yourself, not to show off.
My favorite Yacht-Master is the more recent version with deep blue dial. Much more legible than the original platinum dial version. And the smooth case with soft edges makes it more comfortable to both wearer and partner.
Best watch in the market, nicest Rolex without being flashy. Solid gold without anyone noticing, Rolex without anyone noticing. Grey market has this a bit too much over the retail cost 35k in my area. 29k at the AD
There is some revisionist history here. The steel / platinum dial Yachtmaster was actually very popular when it was released in the late 90’s. It just didn’t get refreshed when the other lines did with ceramic etc so it didn’t carry much momentum 15 years later when they did the rose gold.
Spot on. There was a waiting list for the original YM 16622 platinum dial back in 1999. Showbiz celebrities had one (Charlie Sheen, Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, Phil Colins, Russel Crowe etc.).
This has grown on me since it's launch. I really love everything about it. I'm considering selling my 2 watches to buy this. I love it's understated but classy smart and stealth.
Okay, so I have watched pretty much the majority of the videos you have posted so far and I can't tell you how much I enjoy the narration. A big thanx for that, you have certainly turned me into a watch aficionado! As I get more and more into the sport however, I have grown more demanding which assumingly is only natural :) For example, when you refer to the old age Rolex timepieces, before the brand became refined and luxurious, I feel an urge to visualize what they might looked like.. Instead, I just have this sparkling Yacht-Master swiveling around. Is there any chance we could get a glimpse into these old timers without having to open a separate tab/window and google it ?
I think the blue dial YM is the best looking watch Rolex makes. Beautiful, elegant, functional, and robust. Plus, you don’t see one on everyones wrist like you do the Sub.
I didn’t like the yacht- master 2. Too flamboyant. Loved the yacht-master 1 but it looked very small. I absolutely love the new 42 mill yacht master. Captured it perfect.
Love the new 42mm, but will wait for the cheaper steel version. The 40 mm version with matt bezel and the 40mm with platinum bezel in steel great alternative to the in demand and ridiculous wait listed sports models from Rolex.
This was the one watch I couldn’t understand why it wasn’t received well. Because it’s probably the only Rolex that had a striking appealed to me. Watch world, can ever fully understand it.
Yacht Master is just an incredible piece... Own a dual tone 2004 white dial and just got a Rhodium... Such as underrated watch and no crazy scalpers reselling them
Rolex needs to make more YM 40’s in platinum and steel, especially the dark rhodium dial. It’s their best watch yet impossible to find, I had to buy mine on the grey market with the screws coming out of the bracelet. Looks like someone bought it for a wedding and had it resized but didn’t have it done professionally, so no locktite. Nothing says excellence like the bracelet falling apart 4 hours after you pay $1300 for a 2 or 3 year old $12000 new Rolex.
I had the exact same problem with my Dark Rodium 40 Yacht Master too. I had to buy the level of loc tite ( purple ) and reinsert 3 or 4 screws after buying special Rolex screwdriver. I’ll never buy a watch from anyone but Rolex dealer again. My sub broke during covid and factories were closed and I couldn’t wait on a list for a watch. Just bought my Yacht master 42 from a Rolex dealer, no mark up, no screws falling out. Just a very low pressure high service level of luxury.
Beautiful video as always. I think this one was made in a little rush, or you forgot to do proof watching. Two mistakes: 4:29: it went from zero to hero, not the other way around as you said. 5:57; the clip was trimmed too late as you had moved the wrist out and the frame was blank with something photobombing later. Stunning piece and review regardless.
'Something photo bombing' is the top of the reviewer's head. You can see his hair. All these mistakes seems like Watchfinder is sending some sort of subliminal messages in codes.
Damn, I love your videos , I watch every episode - feels like I’m watching Animal kingdom but about watches...You’re the David Attenborough of Watches!
I just picked up an SD43 (for the 2nd time) last week. I am having trouble warming to it (again). I think the YM42 might just be the watch I need. I would happily trade in my SD43 for this piece, though I may also have to throw in my car to make the numbers work, but hey, walking is good for your health, right? The gloss black dial is much nicer than the more matte SD43. The simpler, more subdued bezel on the YM42 is much more appealing than the frenetic look of the SD43. My sweet spot is a 44mm diver, but since Rolex only shows up with the much too large in other respects DSSD, I am forced into some concessions. I think the SD43 being much thicker does make it appear smaller in general. Just my preference, but if I am going to have to go with a smaller watch, then I would want it to be much slimmer. Interestingly the dial measurement seems to be just a little larger on the YM42, and with a similar lug-to-lug, I suspect it wears at least as big as the SD43. I think this could be a contender for "one watch collection". Appropriately sized and precious metal for dressier occasions while the rubber strap puts it in line with shorts and a t-shirt wear. And in the modern era of rampant watch crime in some places, it has a very under-the-radar type of presentation that could be useful in dark alleys and port city dive bars.
Brandon McGill the markup on their precious metal watches is incredible. Using gold instead of steel probably adds a couple grand to the production cost. Then they up the price by $20k. Racket
The Rolex Yacht Master 42 is a beautiful, sporty and big white gold watch. I would have to order a white gold or stainless steel bracelet to replace the rubber bracelet in the summer.
Very beautiful watch at first glance, has a nice solid feel about it. Love how the detail we captured on this video and your discretion of the watch makes fall in love with it even more..
Its a great watch, but i would make a small change to the strap and not have it tapper to a narrow clasp. I think it would look better as a straight width from the lugs with wider clasp. Otherwise its a really nice piece.
But the price. For a rubber strap (braclet, some argue) when you can buy The Smurf, solid white gold with solid strap, for slightly more. Doesn't make sense to me. I think its Rolex answer to Patek's Aquanaut, which explains the price, but doesn't justify it
I won't ever be a Rolex-Fan. Granted, they manufacture very good watches. But above all Rolex is a masterpiece in marketing not in watchmaking. The Watchfinder & Co vids however are the bees knees and a cut above the rest.
Large pm head, on a rubber strap, oversized hour hand, massive, long seconds hand with oversized lollypop, skinny minute hand. Looks like Rolex designers were given a morning with a parts bin to come up with it. I don,t think this will sell in great numbers, like it,s smaller brothers before. The asking price is a lot as well, for what it is.
Never liked the yachtmaster until I tried one on. It has a nicer case with slight curvature to the sides and the lugs were thinner than those of the submariner. This version however seems to have gone for the more massive, and more submariner look, and other than the cool black bezel, it doesn't do it for me as the older one does.
the problem is always not enough money. Before the YM I have several good watches to buy even from Rolex, like a submariner combined, Explorer II and Day date. I already have others that I consider a must. Thanks for your videos.
I never resonated with Rolex. I appreciate the quality but they just do absolutely nothing for me. But your reviews are mesmerizing, informative and addictive.
Mike Workman remember... yatch master is precious metal and precious metal does not corrode in Salt water.... it takes a beating.... the ousterflex is extremely well built and fits perfect.
Mike Workman Almost 2 years now...no visible scratches on neither the case or clasp as the majority of impact/contact with hard surfaces is absorbed by the Oysterflex bracelet and the Oysterflex itself doesn’t scratch (it’s Rolex’s own proprietary elastic polymer blend that they mold over flexible metal links). One thing you can also think about is getting a Sub and putting a rubber strap from Everest or Rubber B to preserve the original Oyster bracelet from scratches/scuffs 🤷🏻♂️. Just a thought.
amazing watch but Rolex needs to actually release them into stores. enough with the hard to get strategy... let us play with them and buy them already.
Hello. Could you please tell us what you think of the latest Yacht Master with Rose Gold and chocolate dial? Seems to me it’s a bit like Marmite but I think it may be a future classic.
I own a 45.5mm Orient Mako XL but it manages to fit more like a 43. Same with this Yacht Master, it manages to look a lot smaller but still have the same presence of a larger watch
I think it is a gorgeous watch, but unfortunately, my personal budget would not let me have such beautiful timepiece, I think me & some others can enjoy the images....
Amazing as usual. I really need to understand more about the history of the Yachmaster I. Did they ever released an anniversary Yachmaster version ? You also didn’t review the Blue and Rhodium versions.
Great content as usual. Your videous are captivating ! Couldn't help but notice that at around 1:10 you can see the bezel was cleaned but not between the numbers and indices.
@@diegoog3654 you're welcome, In was refering to the 2012 ref 116622 with solid platinum dial (silver looking) discontinued in 2016. Not its replacement in 2016 with the rhodium dial (brass dial painted in rhodium colour).
Please do a video on junghans meister or carl f bucherer or even nomos, Parmigiani, oris. Any independents would be fine as opposed to Richemont or swatch owned brands
@@Nexus.Achiles Thought it was okay, not quite my cup of tea being a bit sparkly on the dial and polishing on the bracelet. The odd thing to me is the 100m depth rating for a 'maritime' watch.
It would be wonderful in steel. Not quite sure what Rolex was thinking when it picked a delicate metal like white gold for what should clearly be a sports' watch.
Absolutely adore this watch- if anyone is looking for an extremely affordable alternative look at the Superocean Heritage 1 on black Rubber strap- gorgeous timepiece thin and very minimal
Yes....our preferences are fickle. I liked that bit about finding the magic ingredient. It truly is something difficult to pinpoint. Sometimes the designers stumble upon it. At other times it eludes them. I feel sometimes people need time to adapt to a new look. They simply cannot be hurried.
We know you want more watches…. click here: linktr.ee/watchfinder
Hodinkee should do an article on narrator behind these videos. no one in the world speaks about watches with as much elegance and detail as him

The rose gold 40 is the more perfect blend of size, elegance, luxury, and style. White gold doesn’t stand out enough. 42mm is too big.
That matte black look is great. It works for the laid back weekend look and works with aa Daytona and the Yatch Master

almost perfect.. too bad Rolex abandoned the red writing and red seconds hand present on other models. Would have been way better
The matte bezel is so much better than the shiny new ceramic inserts.

My favorite thing about this video? the brand logo fits perfectly on my galaxy s10 when zooming into full screen Haha thanks for that!
Diving under the Yacht is so much cooler than lounging on the deck. That’s why the Submariner is more appealing.
It’s crazy cause I always loved the yacht master because it’s more wild and unique then the submariner
Every Watchfinder video I watch is also viewed with ebay on standby so I can check the subject montre out instantly.
