Can’t do it - have one and love it! Wear great - has the distinctive Rolex look but low key at the same time.

Don’t get the AK… but

Just wanted to let you know , it’s a great watch.

Slim? I’d try the OP41, slimmer..

Along the same lines, I also don’t understand the Yacht-Master. How is it relevant to someone with Yacht? The name alone is cringeworthy.

What's a real pilot watch ? One with a big crown ? One with a Chronograph ? One with a turning bezel ?
Because all of the above are "pilot's" watches characteristics...

Currently, every watch is a "pilot's watch", the same as every watch with a decent WR is a "Diver's watch".
Watches aren't tools anymore. They were used in the past for their characteristics but nowadays, it's just jewels that we enjoy wearing whenever we want.

So go wear your Yacht-Master and Sub on a plane and your Explorer II on your Yacht.

TT sub would be your 3 hitter in this collection and it gives you the SEAL trifecta

If you’re drawn to it, go for it. I think it’s a great piece and I’ve seriously considered adding it to my collection a few times and still might.
