How To Use the Yacht-Master II Bezel & Chronograph functions:
To access the chronograph functions, the top and bottom side pushers will be used. To start and stop the chronograph seconds, hand on the dial, press the top pusher. It will then begin to sweep clockwise around the dial. To reset the second's hand to the 12 o’clock position, press the bottom pusher.
To access the programmable Regatta countdown function, unscrew the crown and turn the ring command bezel counterclockwise until it clicks into position (90 degrees). You can then press the bottom pusher to set the bezel. Using the screw-down crown, you can now set the dedicated triangle hand to coordinate with the 10-minute counter that circles the center of the dial. For example, countdown from 5 minutes, set the hand to position 5, and so forth. Next, rotate the bezel clockwise back into its original position and screw the crown back into the case. Press the top pusher to start or stop the countdown.
The countdown can be synchronized on the fly to match the official race countdown:
Pressing the bottom pusher while the chronograph functions are in use activates the “Flyback” function, automatically moving the countdown back to the most recent minute. The Regatta chronograph also features a mechanical memory. The triangle hand will automatically return to whichever minute it initially set before the countdown by resetting the time via the bottom pusher.

Just like the Sky-Dweller, the Yacht-Master II features a 'Ring Command' bezel that operates in conjunction with the movement, acting as the key to the programmable countdown.
This model ref. 116680 was produced from 2013 to 2017 and was then replaced by the newer version, same ref. 116680, with only three slight cosmetic differences:
- The sport hands (“Mercedes symbol” hour hand)
- The triangle marker at 12 o'clock
- The rectangle marker at 6 o'clock
