In 2015, we got the Everose Yacht-Master with a brand new Oysterflex bracelet. In 2016 we got the two-tone steel and Everose Yacht-Master. In 2017, we got the flashy sapphire-set bezel version of the <a title=\"Yacht-Master\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-yacht-master-1.html\">Yacht-Master<\/a>. And earlier this year, we got the biggest Yacht-Master to date with a 42mm case size.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the last update the Rolex Submariner collection got was the arrival of the Submariner 114060 in 2012 and before that, the introduction of the Submariner Date 116610LN in 2010. Yet, despite the changes to one collection and the lack of changes to another, one thing remains &#8211; the striking similarities between the Submariner Date and the Yacht-Master 40.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-35112 size-full\" title=\"Rolex Yacht-Master 40 ref. 116622\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/5D3_4265-2-Edit.jpg\" alt=\"Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/5D3_4265-2-Edit.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/5D3_4265-2-Edit-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/5D3_4265-2-Edit-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/5D3_4265-2-Edit-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/5D3_4265-2-Edit-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When the Yacht-Master first hit the market in 1992, dressed in its full 18k yellow gold glory, many observed that the then-new Rolex sports watch looked like a fancy version of the Submariner. Yes, there was a full yellow gold Submariner already available at the time, but the Yacht-Master offered even more gold thanks to its 18k bezel. It&#8217;s no secret that the Yacht-Master never achieved the status that the Submariner has enjoyed &#8211; but that\u2019s not really fair to say since no other watch has either. Let\u2019s dig into the details.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11240 size-full\" title=\"Rolex Submariner Date ref. 116610LN\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Submariner-116610LN.jpg\" alt=\"Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Submariner-116610LN.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Submariner-116610LN-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Submariner-116610LN-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Submariner-116610LN-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Case and Dial: Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40<\/h2>\n<p>First things first, because there are several types of Submariner and Yacht-Master models, we selected two that are the most alike for this comparative review: the steel and ceramic Submariner Date ref. 116610LN and the steel and platinum Yacht-Master 40 ref. 116622.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-35114 size-full\" title=\"Rolex Yacht-Master 40\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Yachtmaster_116622_5D3_1580-Edit.jpg\" alt=\"Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Yachtmaster_116622_5D3_1580-Edit.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Yachtmaster_116622_5D3_1580-Edit-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Yachtmaster_116622_5D3_1580-Edit-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Yachtmaster_116622_5D3_1580-Edit-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Yachtmaster_116622_5D3_1580-Edit-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Right off the bat, we see that both the Submariner and the Yacht-Master have 40mm Oyster cases fitted with Triplock screw-down winding crowns. However, the Submariner does have a water resistance rating of 300 meters while the Yacht-Master&#8217;s is 100 meters &#8211; after all, the first is a dive watch while the latter is a boating watch.<\/p>\n<p>Both Rolex models have a rotating bezel, but the Submariner&#8217;s bezel only rotates in one direction as a fail-safe method so divers don&#8217;t accidentally underestimate how long they&#8217;ve been underwater. Furthermore, the Submariner 116610LN&#8217;s bezel is constructed from Cerachrom ceramic with engraved markings, while the Yacht-Master 116622&#8217;s bezel is fashioned from 950 platinum and features raised numerals.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-35109 size-full\" title=\"Rolex Submariner Date\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_116610_5D3_3774-Edit-copy.jpg\" alt=\"Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_116610_5D3_3774-Edit-copy.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_116610_5D3_3774-Edit-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_116610_5D3_3774-Edit-copy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_116610_5D3_3774-Edit-copy-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_116610_5D3_3774-Edit-copy-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Aside from color, the dials of the Submariner Date and Yacht-Master 40 are basically identical. There&#8217;s the familiar mix of round, rectangular, and triangular lume-filled and white gold framed hour markers, the Mercedes-style hands, and the date window plus Cyclops lens combo at 3 o&#8217;clock. Yet, it must be mentioned that all of the various dials of the Yacht-Master (blue, dark rhodium, and sand-blasted platinum) do indeed look a bit more luxurious than the utilitarian vibe of the black Submariner dial.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-20987 size-full\" title=\"Rolex Yacht-Master 40\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rolex-Yachtmaster-113126-Blue-Dial.jpg\" alt=\"Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rolex-Yachtmaster-113126-Blue-Dial.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rolex-Yachtmaster-113126-Blue-Dial-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rolex-Yachtmaster-113126-Blue-Dial-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rolex-Yachtmaster-113126-Blue-Dial-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rolex-Yachtmaster-113126-Blue-Dial-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rolex-Yachtmaster-113126-Blue-Dial-140x140.jpg 140w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Rolex-Yachtmaster-113126-Blue-Dial-380x380.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Bracelet and Movement: Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40<\/h2>\n<p>Moving onto the bracelet, both of these Rolex sports watches are fitted with the robust three-link Oyster bracelet. However, the Submariner bracelet does have the additional benefit of their Glidelock extension system, which allows the bracelet to extend\/contract in 2mm increments for a total of 20mm. The Yacht-Master\u2019s Oyster bracelet comes equipped with Rolex&#8217;s Easylink extension system, which increases the length of the bracelet by an additional 5mm.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-35113 size-full\" title=\"Rolex Submariner Date\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_16610_5D3_3482-Edit.jpg\" alt=\"Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_16610_5D3_3482-Edit.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_16610_5D3_3482-Edit-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_16610_5D3_3482-Edit-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_16610_5D3_3482-Edit-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sub_16610_5D3_3482-Edit-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Both the Submariner Date ref. 116610LN and the Yacht-Master 40 ref. 116622 run on Rolex\u2019s Caliber 3135 self-winding movement. The Caliber 3135 has been the company&#8217;s go-to time and date movement since 1988. It has the hacking feature (the seconds hand stops when the crown is pulled out) for precise time-setting, and a quickset date feature (the date is set independently from the timekeeping hands) for easy adjusting. The movement offers a power reserve of 48 hours, and since 2015, an accuracy rating of -2\/+2 seconds per day.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth mentioning that Rolex no longer makes the Yacht-Master 40 ref. 116622. It was replaced with the Yacht-Master 40 ref. 126622 just this year, which has the new-generation Caliber 3235 inside the watch.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13878 size-full\" title=\"Rolex Yacht-Master 40\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rolex_Yachtmaster_268622-5D3_8214-Edit.jpg\" alt=\"Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rolex_Yachtmaster_268622-5D3_8214-Edit.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rolex_Yachtmaster_268622-5D3_8214-Edit-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rolex_Yachtmaster_268622-5D3_8214-Edit-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rolex_Yachtmaster_268622-5D3_8214-Edit-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Rolex_Yachtmaster_268622-5D3_8214-Edit-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Price and Value: Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40<\/h2>\n<p>Interestingly, if we look at the retail price of the Submariner Date vs. Yacht-Master 40, we see that the Yacht-Master is quite a bit more expensive at just under $12,000 while the Submariner is priced at just over $8,500. Yet, in the secondary market, these two models hover around a similar price point &#8211; currently around $9,000 (give or take a few hundred dollars depending on condition and age).
