Blue DJII or Blue YM1
Getting a blue dial as a second watch to compliment my LV, something a bit lighter/trimmer and a tad dressier. Having a hell of a time deciding between the DJII blue stick flutes or the blue 40 mm YM. DJII always seems a good bit bigger, perhaps too big and not a classic due it being perhaps oversized due to the bigger watch trend. My wrists are 7.25 though. 36 mm DJ unfortunately only comes in jubilee which takes it out of the running. I'd really appreciate some thoughts.

One more thought, perhaps, as the wearer, the DJII appears bigger to me than it actually is, and it's actually proportional. I'm 6'. I'm also aware that it may appear so much bigger due to more dial because of no bezel.

I'm more of a Yacht-Master guy, fits my lifestyle a little better. It's sporty enough, and dressy enough for me.
Either watch would be fantastic. Good luck

I like the YM much more than the DJII, but the latter is dressier in my opinion

I like the DJII (with sticks) over the YM. You're wrist size will carry off the DJII no problem. It'll be classic on your wrists. Plenty of guys here own the DJII & are happy with it.

I just recently purchased the DJII, but was also considering the blue YM. Both are beautiful pieces, but at the end of the day, the DJII won out for me. I think the DJII would give your collection a bit more variety, as the YM very much resembles a Sub, which you already have. Also, the DJII is a bit dressier (if that means anything to you).
I would love to add a blue YM to my collection one day. You really can't go wrong with this decision. |

I have a feeling the DJ2 will be getting the DD2 treatment in the near future. |

I think the DJ2 would give you a little more contrast in your collection, if that's what you're going for...if not, then the YM would be the choice.
If bang for your buck is a consideration, I think the smooth bezel DJ2 would give you some pretty serious savings. |

The size of your wrist will carry the DJII perfectly and provide a dressier look than the YM or your Sub.
