Very nice, welcome to TRF and enjoy your stay

Careful though, daily visits to TRF will have long term effects including your collection greatly increasing

Welcome, that's a sweet collection, so how do you like the YM-II, it is a relatively new watch in the Rolex world and I would love to hear your views?

The YM-II does provoke some strong emotions, but the movement is pretty special. The size of the watch is quite imposing too.

I hope you will enjoy your participation here

I recently picked up the YM-II so I only got a chance to wear it a few times. Its a very nice watch a bit on the heavy side though. I don't plan to wear it daily but I do love the watch and will be happy to wear it on special occasions :). I know many people dont like it but to each his own. My hublot is my most common daily watch and its pretty beat up after 2 years.

Welcome to the forums! Glad to have you aboard.

Its not everyday I meet a member on here who currently owns a Yacht master II. IMO, that is a nice score!! The SS/Plat YM you own is also a beauty!

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks are definitely excellent watches in their own right too.

Enjoy your stay here!

Jerome

AP lovely, i used to be in to the Hublots but I think they have dated slightly and I would always choose the Offshore over it (in my WIS 'I just won the lottery' dreams) !!

The Hublot is a very nice watch you really have to wear it a few times to appreciate it. Its not as recognizable as rolex or AP but its nice non the less. The only negative is that the big bang is their only nice model and there are too many variations. The same cant be said about rolex with so many nice pieces to chose from sub, daytona, yachtmaster ect..
