New Yachtmaster
I must stand up and shout, "I finally got a Yachtmaster!" This is the only place I can share that.....where anybody cares
I had to trade in my Submariner though, got it in '93, figured it wouldn't be touched with SS Yachtmaster nearby. Let me ask.....almost afraid to- I traded the no date Sub for $3370 and paid $5400 out of pocket----did I get ripped? |

price is fine...main thing is you have the watch you want right now...and they are a lovely piece...I adore mine..and it always gets comments...especially from girlfriends of my wife who always say how "more men should wear watches with that colour dial"...I'm glad they don't ..... makes it all the more special.
Congrats and post pics as soon as you receive it...

Way to go the YM is such a great Rolex. It is one of the most beautiful Rolex watches made. I love the red letters on the dial as well. Good work.

I completely agree. Had my YM in for warranty work recently and my sub lv spent a lot of time on my wrist. The second I put the YM back on the other day after getting it back, I realized how much more comfortable it is on the wrist, at least for me.
