The reference 16622 YachtMaster is made in SS and Platinum
is just a little different and a unique Rolex watch.

It looks a little different than a diver watch and itīs
a little big to call dress watch. In my opinion you can
use it to both.

It have the TripLock crown who is good enough down
to 1220 meters but because the YachtMaster is not a
diver watch itīs only rated to 100 meters. The TripLock
crown get a nicer balance and itīs easier to handle than
the TvinLock crown when the watch have crown guards.

The crown guards have a more rounded shape than the Submariner.

YachtMaster was the first Rolex with the big indexīs, later
called MaxiDial at the Submariner with green bezel insert.
The dial is made of Platinum and the YachtMaster is written
in red.

YachtMaster even have a little bigger hands than the other
Rolexīs except the Submariner with MaxiDial. The red second
hand just stand out in a nice way.

The bezel is made in SS and the insert is made in Platinum
with raised mirror polished numbers.

YachtMaster have SEL (solid end links) and the center links
are mirror polished.

The center links are solid and not hollow like they use to be,
so that means the bracelet now are just so good as a Invicta
bracelet. LOL

The clasp is a little different too, the raised crown is
at the secure lock and not at the clasp like it use to be.

The YachtMaster even have a unique case with a more curved
lugs than the other Rolex case. In my opinion this looks
really nice and give the case a better balance.

The backside of the lugs looks different too, notice the end of the lug.

The SuperLuminova do a great work as it use to do.

Inside the watch it looks just like it use to do, cal 3135
not looks like a Patek but it will serve you for many years.

This watch is awesome in my opinion and it looks better in
the real world because itīs hard to get it justice with a
camera.

Great post, Jocke, thanks :))!

Another interesting point about this watch is that it is still the youngest Rolex Oyster model.
It is the only completely newly designed model that was introduced into the market since 1992 ;).

With the Yacht-Master, I think there are only two options: Love it or hate it.
I love it :)) :D!

Cheers

Well, you can use it as a scratch-magnet, too :P

All the best, Eiko
