Yachtmaster's red/black date wheel.
What's the deal with the black & red date wheels?
Red more collectable? Limited edition? Year it was made?  thanks in advance.

I don't believe they've ever done one standard with a roulette date wheel - the only model I'm aware of that uses them is the Datejust, or the Turn-O-Graph for an all-red one. Yacht-Masters are all black, as far as I know

I meant in some pics i've seen some with black date wheels and others with red date wheels. (Don't mean wheels with both on). |

You may have seen Jockes with a red wheel which he installed himself!
