Guest Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I had my grail rep watch on yesterday and my friend said it looked a lot smaller than his....I bought this watch because I went to the Rolex store 6 months ago when he bought it....I fell in love instantly....Now that I think about it, it does seem a little smaller.... What size is BKs Yachtmaster and what size is the current one...Is there a 2010 model that come out....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 A 16622 should be 40mm, and a BK/WM9 YM should be the same. There is a mid-size YM (168622) that is 36mm, but that should be fairly easy to identify as it's quite a bit smaller than the full size, and it's also fitted with the 6mm crown... All things aside, I don't believe BK does one of those... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 sweet thanks ubi... come to think of it my friends 5'8 and im 6'2 so thats probably the "problem" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel Fleischer Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Bk's YM is abit more than 40mm, as noted- there is a midsize gen too @ 36mm. One thing I noticed is that gen Rollies tend to wear bigger than most reps. Rolex has changed the case and lugs over the past several years( more square like) also making for a bigger looking watch. They still list the Subs and GMT @ 40mm. yet they are really about 41mm. or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 jcmiro- Are you able to compare your 16622 to his, side by side? That should confirm/validate size or difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cib0rgman Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 I really doubt that they are different, I have seen here BK YM fitted with Gen crystal and insert if there a different in size those gen parts will not be able to fit.
