It might just be me, but the YM is one of those watches that look better in the flesh, than in catalogue pics.

Gorgeous watch, Dragonmaster. Congrats

Haha that was my daughter's greasy prints. I didn't notice the bezel until I took the photos. It's been wiped clean.

The watch was brand new; had all the stickers & warranty dated the purchase date.

Is it the new clasp model? I'd be interested to know what it ended up setting you back.
If you wouldn't mind PM-ing me

I had a platinum yachter for a bit. Didn't like it and I flipped it. Felt too much like a dressy Sub without the capabilities. That's my opinion.

watchwatcher · 21 May 2013, 06:31 AM

I think the questions been answered, emphatically yes! Congrats!

snowpea · 21 May 2013, 09:04 AM

Congrats again, I too loved the Yatchmaster was just waiting for them to update the clasp. Up on my list to pickup unless I run in to the new Basel releases first

Nycturbovr6 · 21 May 2013, 11:42 AM

Congrats!

Cesium133 · 21 May 2013, 11:46 AM

Glad it worked out for you. YM is one of my favorites. Enjoy it!

520Matt · 21 May 2013, 02:24 PM

That's a beauty!! I don't think it wears small BTW. What do you think size wise

Dragonmaster · 21 May 2013, 03:18 PM

So, tried some quick photos of my current collection but can't get any good shots.
Here's my current "Super 7" & specifically my "Terrific Trio"

Rostami6 · 21 May 2013, 03:29 PM

Great choice. Congrats!

Size wise I think it's fine. I just need to get rid of my Boss chronograph that's 46mm. Pretty much all my watches I currently wear are 40-42mm.

Congrats. One of my favorites.

Congrats! The YM is a beautiful watch. Difficult to catch in pictures.
That along with the Pelagos makes for a great day / night combo.

ledas1 · 22 May 2013, 02:04 AM

I'd love to have it. Preowned or not. <smile>

Solo118 · 22 May 2013, 06:15 AM

I have been bitten by the YM bug as well! I was saving up for a 16610, but now thinking of just getting a YM. Yes its pretty much a Sub on steroids, but the bracelet does feel a bit nicer and the dial just blows me away. The best part is they have been selling the same watch for ~10 years so a preowned is priced great and it looks very similar to the latest model. I guess the same can be said about the 16610, but why not try something new?? Never had a YM before!

Excellent choice.
