Edition: Special SDL101PACK presentation version, 1998

Yellow Sub SDL101 is one of the more unusual Swatch Scuba 200 models of the late 1990s, released in 1998 and built around a playful yellow-submarine theme.

The watch uses the larger Scuba 200 format with a plastic case measuring approximately 38.4 mm / 1.51 in in diameterand 13.8 mm / 0.54 in thick. It is fitted with a plastic crystal, plastic strap, Swiss quartz movement, and rotating elapsed-time bezel. Specialist Swatch documentation gives the original water-resistance specification as 20 bar / 200 m, appropriate to the Scuba 200 family.

The blue dial and blue-and-yellow strap are decorated with repeated yellow submarine graphics, giving the watch an unmistakably nautical and pop-cultural appearance. The visual similarity to the imagery associated with The Beatles’ Yellow Submarine has led collectors, dealers, and auction houses to describe the model as Beatles-inspired. However, Swatch’s current official archive identifies the model simply as YELLOW SUB SDL101, without explicitly presenting it as a licensed Beatles collaboration.
