Milgauss! It doesn’t scream Rolex and has nice wrist presence. The YM with the giant numbers on the bezel just doesn’t work for me.

Milgauss for me. Easy call. Here's mine on leather carbon fiber strap.

Both look toy-like to me, so neither. The Rosegold YM40 on oysterflex is quite classy though.

Never quite understood the YM and the oversized numbers on the bezel do nothing for me. Milgauss is easy choice.

Yachtmaster. I’m intrigued by the raised metal number bezel...

Two very cool pieces in my opinion. Personally the blue Yacht-Master would be my choice for a watch I planned to wear daily. The timing bezel and date make it a much more capable watch IMO.

YM a better watch in that date and platinum bezel. Probably more versatile. YM deserves more of a following imho so YM for me.

Good choice. I struggled a bit with this decision. Ultimately I chose the YM, as it is so comfortable on the wrist. Sits nicer than the sub (and doesn't have that maxi case thing). more classic proportions. I really love the Mill, and would have chosen it, but the case is just too thick and bulky on the wrist. Just feels too top heavy and chunky.
