The yachtmaster still uses the older style rotating bezel assembly, like from the 16610 Subs and 16710 GMT. So the 116610 ceramic parts are definitely a no-go.

Check out this article from TRF member Jocke regarding the yachtmaster's platinum bezel.

Supposedly, the bezel and insert are 2 separate pieces but more skill is required to remove the insert than with typical aluminum inserts. Even if you did successfully remove the platinum insert, I have no idea if a 16610 black insert would fit properly in the ym's platinum bezel ring.

You could perhaps source an entire 16610 stainless steel bezel ring (the serrated ring itself) and insert which would work but at a greatly increased $$ cost.
