Agreed I think the bottom one was the 40. The YM is gorgeous on a woman IMO Looking forward to seeing some more pics.

Sorry..didnt see this. Yes..bottom one is 40mm. It's all about perspective really. I wear my 40mm Sub & have gotten used to the size of it so when I tried on the 35mm YM, I was completely taken aback at how small it looked. I know in the pictures it doesn't look that way & actually looks pretty nice. Mark are you considering this for a lady? For yourself? If it's for a lady that isn't used to wearing 40mm watches, I would consider the 35mm. :-)

Wow, that looks great. Are there any more photos of the 35mm 168622?

Or additionally, any ladies with olive skin using one of these? My girlfriend is Brazilian and I really want to see if the 168622 will suit her, she tried on my gold GMT IIC and it didn't suit at all (aside from being massive for her).

I am buying it as a surprise so no test-driving. Eek.

Hi Mfer,

I just sneakily checked and think my girlfriends wrist is 5.5" too. You don't have a couple more pics lying about do you? Would be great just to make sure I think the look will suit her.

quick and dirty pics with the phone







Scratched up clasp, she doesn't use a wrist guard on her laptop. Drives me crazy!



How did that one sneak in there....?
