2 Tone chocolate Yacht Master
I saw one today at my AD and this is one gorgeous watch. I was never really interested in any yacht masters until I saw this one in person. I guess for this price range you could get a Root Beer (or any other GMTs if you are lucky to get it retail price) which makes this model less desirable, but I do find it quite unique.
What do you guys think about this model? Any owners? |

It’s a fantastic watch. With the 3235 movement. Given its relatively easy availability at ADs vs grey market prices of GMTs in SS, I wouldn’t hesitate and buy the YM.

I actually really like it and I’m not a big fan of TT. Definitely much better looking in person, the RG on it combined with the chocolate dial is beautiful. Here’s a pic I took wearing it from the holidays. |

I think that’s the best two tone I’ve ever seen. I almost prefer it to the RG Oysterflex YM. Very nice indeed!

I like it on pictures, it looks really nice but I've never seen one IRL. I could definitely rock one of these in spite of already owning a YM.

I like the black dial better for a man

Strangely, it's not my cup of tea from the pictures. But I'm new to the game so that probably means once I see it in the metal or in a year or two's time I'll adore it

This is a very very very nice watch.
In real life its amazing and the color combo is the best. RG + Choco is just a winning combo. |

I prefer the black dial to break up the rose gold more.

I have the black dial and love mine! Was looking to get a Rootbeer but found this one more unique. The oyster case is incredible, a great mix of old school and new...

Tried this on at an AD today, not for me. Found it quite a feminine watch, even at 40mm.
really don't think rose gold works as a two tone whatsoever, but the majority on this forum seem to love the chnr, which i also dislike. having said that, my next purchase at this moment in time will probably be the rose gold on bracelet chocolate dialk daytona. |
