I'm stuck between a YM TT blue (full size) and the Sub anniversary green/black. Which has the easier resale? Seems the Green/black are much more plentiful in secondary market, which could mean they are more popular and sell, or could mean the YM blue is more desirable and gets picked off the market faster, hence it's hard to find?

Thoughts?

Sub LV (anniversary)

phampau · 30 May 2011, 03:02 PM

Definately LV

MortgageGuy · 30 May 2011, 03:14 PM

LV without a doubt, the YM has always been a bit of a tough selling piece, a true beauty and amazing but a slow seller

rolexsweep · 30 May 2011, 03:51 PM

just cannot go wrong with lv.

roger0770 · 30 May 2011, 03:57 PM

which one sings to you more? if you're thinking buying a watch as an investment, it's a better idea to invest the money elsewhere that's more efficient. you can't go wrong with either. i like the sub lv better, and that's what i'd choose. good luck w/ your decision.

Shade · 30 May 2011, 03:59 PM

SUB LV gets my vote here... the PT/SS YM is great, but not the Two Tone. :(

I never liked anything two toned.

Tank1734 · 30 May 2011, 04:04 PM

LV all the way. I'm a little biased as it is the watch I most lust after.

Not buying as an investment. Hopefully I can keep this one long enough to pass down to my kid. Was just wondering why one is easy to find, the other nearly impossible. I am torn exactly in the middle on these two and trying to find a rational reason for one over the other.

Thanks for everybody's advice. Making decision this week. Will post up after purchase.

+ 1 for the LV

LV for sure.

nauticajoe · 30 May 2011, 10:10 PM

LV

Kiddodoc · 30 May 2011, 10:51 PM

LV for sure. TT's in general are little harder to sell than All Gold or SS. Plus, the LV is no longer made so it's selling price would command more.

Kiddodoc · 30 May 2011, 10:59 PM

Also, both watches would likely be rare in Corpus. Lots of DJ, DD and subs but not the LV nor the YM.

East Bay Rider · 30 May 2011, 11:01 PM

Of those two, I prefer the Sub LV.

chicagofan · 30 May 2011, 11:02 PM

LV. I prefer SS to TT.

Singslinger · 31 May 2011, 12:16 AM

Here's a vote for the blue TT YM.

Beautiful watch, rarely seen in the wild. Much harder to find than the LV. Yes, it probably won't hold its value as well as the LV, but is $ what life is all about? If it sings to you more than the LV, then go for it.

CoopJr · 31 May 2011, 12:40 AM

Lv!

Sherwooddavid · 31 May 2011, 12:40 AM

No doubt the LV.
