Yacht-Master 40 on the Oysterflex - blue dial in real light

Swapped my daily rotation around this summer and this one has been on the wrist almost every day. The blue dial goes from almost navy indoors to bright royal blue outside, which you can kind of see here. The platinum-style bezel is matte with the polished numerals raised, and the edges are crisp enough that I stopped checking it with a loupe after the first week. Rubber strap is the real winner for summer. No sweat build-up like a bracelet, and it doesn't pull arm hair. Keeps around +2 s/day on my wrist.

Around +3 s/day, I check it against my phone every few days.

Love seeing real wrist shots instead of stock photos.

Something different from the usual Subs. Love it.

Bright for the first hour, then it fades like most. Still readable at 3am.

How does it wear compared to a Sub?

Bigger but balanced. Comfortable after a day.
