Yachtmaster availability

I guess this proves that yachtmasters are fairly available at the AD.

Imagine the outrage on TRF if he went in and bought a SS Daytona and a BLRO by chance

Thinking about getting a YM at the moment. Good to know they’re not too hard to come by

Well now I feel better about my watch buying addiction. I’ve neen feeling like it’s a bit unhealthy lately, but at least I’m not trading my freedom for them.

I thought the same exact thing! Pieter Andries in Southlake is my AD too. I rarely see YM’s in the case. They definitely brought those from the safe but it blows my mind that they would sell 2 YMs to a random person they didn’t know and further wouldn’t ask him to remove his mask for even a short period of time so that the cameras can get a good shot of him. They definitely need to learn from this.

I wonder if this guy realizes that you cannot sell a watch to pawn shop or even a high end jeweler without being finger printed and photographed. I traded a Rolex at a Patek dealer and got fingerprinted and photographed like a common criminal.

These serial numbers are flagged. Eventually this guy sells these watches to someone else who sells them. Then the police get involved.

I have been offered YM 2, blue dial, 2015, but no papers just box, they offered for £10.000.

How is that price? It's from private seller, who got it from a reputable dealer.

Watch for them on ebay or craigslist.

All gold and RG/SS should be relatively easy to come by. Both beautiful!!! Well dressed hood, btw. That should have been the first clue.
