The Sub. Had it been the White gold version of the YM II I might have thought a bit.

Sorry,but I didn't vote for either watch.
But if the choice had been for the Y/G instead of the Y/G YM II then I would of been tempted.

Definitely the sub for me. Just much more classy. The word I would use to describe the YMII is "gaudy" - I would personally feel embarrassed to wear it no matter how big a yacht I had! But that's just me! All IMO, but watches like the YMII give the brand the "I'm richer than you image".

Before even looking at the rest of the watch, I just don't get the "YACHT-MASTER II" on the bezel.

SUB SUB SUB!

It's no contest . . . not even close. I personally think the YM is hideous. The sub . . . now that's a beauty!

wow...

I'm surprised how bad the YM doesn't look.
In other words...wow the YMII actually looks pretty good.
but... WOW that full Gold Blue sub is amazing...

the YM isn't close to being in the same league...
