I just picked this one up! It was quite a mission to find one pre-owned.
I know the majority here would have picked the blue with sunburst dial but for some reason I think this one is a lot rarer and more versatile.

Have a nice day!

Hot damn! Maybe the maxi dial isn't so bad when there's diamonds!

Thank you guys!! I don't know why the black diamond dial doesn't seem to get a lot of love in the community!!!
The watch is sporty yet a bit more sophisticated than its counterparts!!!
Loving it so much that I slept with it on my wrist last night.
Had a nightmare that I was failing my senior year and couldn't graduate from college. (I guess the fact of being a black sheep in the family and having had rigid parents contributed to that recurrent nightmare LOL!!)
Woke up flustered but felt something heavy on my wrist. From there I knew right off that it was a bad dream.

Good going Vin. She's a beauty. A black dial for the black sheep...with diamonds no less. It's good to be a black sheep. Congrats.

The blue sunburst on YG is ALOT of color for me, but back on YG is just about perfect. Congrats

Congrats, a stunning piece! That dial also has the lovely gold lettering which comes magically alive in the sun on the blue dial.
