The short answer

The closest alternative to the Rolex Yacht-Master II is the Breitling Super Chronomat B01 Chronograph 44 Nfl Buffalo Bills Edition ($11,350) — common cross-shop and Racing chrono. If price is the constraint, the Breitling Avenger B01 Chronograph at $7,150 (vs $20,300 for the Yacht-Master II) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the BOLDR Supply Co. Odyssey Regatta Admiral Blue is the standout microbrand take — racing chrono and Visually similar. Stepping up, the Rolex Yacht-Master II ($60,700) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
