Oh nooooooooooo Pinky! There is no bling here, move on, nothing to see

I do love the red second hand, I think it would be a cool addition to a Sub.

That doesn't seem particularly blingy to me. It's sharp.

I've noticed that the dial color would look better in a dark gry, or Blk. I like the picture!

I find it strange how Jocke posts pics of the YM, and then you notice a lot of new threads of YM purchases.
