Latest Mid Size Yacht Master, double or triple lock?
Hello all,
I purchased a SS/PT Mid Size Yacht Master, S/N Z091xxx, from my local AD yesterday (I have small wrists). It was NIB, with all the plastic protection strips still on the bracelet. From the S/N, I would imagine the case was made late 2006 to mid 2007. I noticed on JJ's, that his full size YM crown has 3 dots, while my mid size has the straight line. Are the current 2008 production mid size YM's still double lock? Thanks, |

The YM PT/SS sure is a sharp watch. I had out grown my Mid Size S/G Datejust that I purchased in 1986 and the extra width of the YM Mid Size is just right on my wrist. |

Yes, both ladies and mid size Yacht Masters still have a twinlock crown on them. The triplock crown has only been available on full size models ever since.
COngratulations on your new Yacht Master!! May we please see pictures of the watch if you have time?  Cheers!!
