I'd pick the WG Sub over the TT YMII.

Of those two, blue sub. Others I'd consider with that $$$ would be the YM II and YG green dial GMT.

So I would like to alter my vote to get the YG/Blue Sub and put the rest towards an EXP II, hahah.

The YG/Blue Sub gives you a little bit of that Blue you want in a Sub (in a much lower priced item with MORE of the 'attention getting' power) and then put the balance towards your next timepiece.....

The YMII is really awesome, but if I'm handling 30k, I'd be exploring other options...

JMO, good luck! Can't wait to hear the outcome!

It's similar to asking, how many of you dive with your Sub or race with your Daytona? It's not necessarily why we buy watches with interesting complications.

I am not a fan of the YMII in TT even though i really lime TT watches. The smurf is great. If it were me, I would buy a full WG or YG YMII used as the secondary market they are not much more than a smurf due to the abysmal resale value of the YMII and I think it is a lot more watch for the money.

Ymii is stunning in person, and you never ever see them!

I do however love that white gold/blue ceramic and dial sub!
