Did anybody pull the trigger on a CLEAN YM 226659?

Yea your right that dial opening is quite large, great quality to the looks of it none the less. Wear it well mate!

Thinking about making this my first investment in the game. How does the rubber strap feel? Would you purchase again?

I'm also looking to purchase a 226659 and was wondering if someone could break down the pros and cons of all the available models? I see there is KING Factory, JVS Factory, GMF Factory, VSF Factory and BP Factory

I would advise going through the site and doing some research

I’ve just received my VSF 226659 yesterday and I’m super happy with it. Despite the fact that it’s stainless steel instead of white gold, it seems very « gen like » to me.

How is the "clicky-ness" of the bezel? I have the VSF version and its not as satisfying as a sub for example as its a different mechanism but I was wondering how the Clean model did it.

I have the VSF version, and I like the clicky-ness a lot. Once more, very gen like as far as I can remember: the clicks are subtle and bit dampen.

agreed, dampened and smooth clicks, unlike the preciseness of subs. very gen like!

I was able to hold a gen for a minute earlier today, and I can confirm what I was saying: the clicky-ness is spot on. Exactly like the gen.
and the whole rep is really gen like. They've made a great job!

Only thing I would say is coming from the 41mm GMT's/Sub's the 42mm YM with the big dial markers looks laughably large in comparison. This isn't a commertary on the rep but just the model. To my eyes it wears larger than a 42mm.

My thoughts also.

The Mercedes circle on the hour hand is huge - clown vibe. Looks off to me.

Again, talking about the gen

Is there anybody who can tell about his experience with the King Yachtmaster?
