The Rolex Yachtmaster

[Tman68]

I am considering a YM, and was wondering the cost of the platinum dial if it needs to be replaced due to the lume or anything else, along with the bezel.

Since they are both platinum I was wondering how much a service could cost as I decide on my 1st Rolex purchase!!!

I asked about the bezel at the local rsc and the lady said they'll send it to Geneva to have it restored all for free. This would likely take a few months tho.

Not sure about the dial.

Has the Yachtmaster with platinum bezel ever come with a white gold bracelet?

Hey All, Newbie here. I was hoping to pick your brain. I am considering buying one of two used YM 16628. If both were in the same condition and same price, the only difference being one is a "P" series and the other is a "W" series which would you pick? Is newer better? What should I consider? I see the box is different, the older being a very nice wood box and the other being what looks to be in something other than wood.

Thanks in advance for your advise.

1. Pick the one in better condition
2. If it's all the same and the only difference is the serial number, I would go with the serial number that relates to me more.
3. Otherwise, go for the P series
