INCOMING 126622 Yachtmaster Slate Perfection

[SaddleSC]

Good morning everyone...I just wanted to write a quick follow up to my last post where I was debating on trading the 116613LB for the 126622 YM.

My new Yachtmaster Slate/Rhodium arrived this morning and my jaw is on the floor. I have owned nearly every other Rolex reference at one time or another but for some reason never connected with pictures of the YM so other watches always jumped ahead of it in line. In person, this watch is absolutely STUNNING! There is no other word to describe it.

I debated briefly between the dark blue and the slate and (having never seen the slate/rhodium dial in person) I just trusted my gut and jumped in with both feet. I reached out to my favorite grey dealer and 16 hours later...here she is!

I am getting ready to size the bracelet but was too excited to share some initial impressions not to post first :)

The case is curvy and gorgeous. The bezel is less prominent than it is in pictures. The slate dial explodes outside in the direct sunlight. The light blue accents are perfect and attract just the right amount of visual attention. The overall height on the wrist is perfect and it definitely wears smaller than my 116610LV Hulk.

So far, it is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I will follow up with more pics shortly...thanks to everyone who gave me feedback on my other thread!
