What Is Wrong With This Ym?

I was just practicing taking some pics and decided to post. I purchased this YM from eddie about 1.5 years ago. I was wondering what is wrong with it? if I walked into an AD what would be the biggest give away? also, what year model is it suppose to be? I lurk every day but rarely post. thanks

I'd say the biggest problem is the YACHT MASTER font which is totally wrong.

Noticeable? Probably only to real hardcore Rolex WIS. The genuine bezel is platinum and I would think the rep can't quite replicate the feel, weight and overall quality appearance.

Other than that it's still a very nice rep.

yeah, i knew the font was suppose to be more bold but i wasn't sure if there was a certain year with a lighter font or not. also, i've noticed that sometimes the "swiss made" is over 5 ticks and sometimes 3.

swiss spacing, font for YM, spacing between 3 and 0 to wide and the cg's

We've already went over this on the other board hu12, the swiss spacing is not incorrect, just not typical. The missing tick marks under the swiss made is incorrect though.

Crown guard are off but actually not horrible the ym has much thicker guards.

hu12 is correct about the font and the spacing between 3 0 and that the bezel numerals are touching the inside edge of the bezel. Cyclops is also too far right, but there are even gens with this affliction.
