YM style bezel is problematic to mockup. But that could be mocked up like a YG Sub with white dial, would give you a general idea how it could look like if you want

I hope this will give you general idea of what you want. I think there used to be YG YM with white dial?

Cool thanks! Yeah there used to be a YG YM with white dial, black markers. I think that version also had a blue dial option but the blue was not as bright as today’s YM blue. After seeing the mock-up, I think probably the standard blue submariner is still the way to go for the gold/blue nautical theme. Thanks again!

Yeah! Cool piece. Was thinking that something like this with the new monotone/matte ceramic bezel in blue (or black) could be cool- then nauticalize it with some blue somewhere. To me, the YM needs a full gold option with gold bracelet, and not just oysterflex.

The idea is a YM 40 version of the YM2 color way - I like the nautical color theme of the YM2, but I think a lot of members aren’t crazy about the size of the watch, the cluttered dial etc of the YM2. So the idea is a YM 40 in either white or yellow metal, a blue bezel (but matte like the RG YM 40), a white dial with white markers, red “Yachtmaster” text and red seconds hand. Whether it’s on a strap or metal bracelet I leave to your creativity.
A rough job... But I just don't think it works -

Yeah it is interesting, because I don't mind the colorway on the gold YM2, but it doesn't seem to work on the YM for whatever reason. Thanks!

I’d love to see a ceramic Daytona steel Paul Newman. Modern take on a classic.

I have to agree, would need a lot of work to create this one, and for it to really look good.

Loving your work VGS!

Is it possible to mock up a Everose two tone (as per CHNR) Daytona with a black ceramic bezel and a chocolate dial with black sub-dials?

Think it does look good on the President, esp with the fluted bezel, initially I preferred the DJ41 with fluted on Oyster but I'm liking the Jubilee on it more and more, works really well.

I like this one a lot. Knowing Rolex though, this will be in WG and will be introduced when the 116610LV is discontinued just to stick it to us a little more

A friend stopped by for a glass of wine and saw this thread opened, asked for a mockup of his own so I'm gonna share that too. Just a YG Hulk.

This, in white dial - WG or PT is my grail. I've considered building it from two different watches.
