its all about the Yacht-Master

Rscmaine · 17 January 2010, 05:51 AM

Sorry, but I can hardly tell what watch it is in the 69 picture - it just blends away to obscurity. Might as well be a Rado...

The TT jumps up and says "Rolex".

Ym.

Back to even stevens.

JBat · 17 January 2010, 05:58 AM

It's a tough call, JJ, but I'm leaning towards Bluesy. Really, a toss up. Both are beautiful watches.

The Platty works best with your grey hair.

BTW. Did you watch the video?

I agreed, John.....both beauties and the poll is going neck to neck!!

gone-rolex-mad · 17 January 2010, 06:00 AM

I hate to say it, because I know what a pain in the bum the YM can be when you scratch the bezel, but I think I looks grand on you JJ!

I think Karis said it yesterday, but it's the contrast of the Blue Sub that works better than the kind of monochrome YM. That and the blue and gold pair together so well. It really grabs your eye.

escudoturbo · 17 January 2010, 06:03 AM

Despite the matching arm hair for the Platty I voted the TT, it is an awesome looking watch on anyone but with your olive skin a TT Bluesey would go down a treat.

dardeca · 17 January 2010, 06:09 AM

I voted TT Sub. I've never been a fan of the Yachtmaster.

Still neck to neck - 50-50!!

A1000 · 17 January 2010, 06:16 AM

Personally I like the relative simplicity of the YM. Sorry but my vote appears to have put it to 25 a piece which means the vote is of no help to you unless others vote

submariner16610 · 17 January 2010, 06:16 AM

I like the bluesy over the ym. But the ym looks better on your wrist..

gfair40 · 17 January 2010, 06:17 AM

Platty for me. Just not a huge fan of TT.

That means you should keep the ym and just get another bluesy whenever you are ready..That way,no regrets and you couldn't be happier.. coz if you will flip the ym, you might miss it after a couple of months...

zippaul · 17 January 2010, 06:19 AM

There is as you probably already know "something" about the bluesy that draws many of us in. My vote is for the bluesy. The YM leaves me indifferent but respectful. Indifferent because it just doesn't suit my tastes but respectful because it is a beautiful timepiece made by Rolex.

Thanks, both excellent posts!!

JJ you are such a ham on the first post!

:r ofl:

RRGHOST1 · 17 January 2010, 06:35 AM

Look JJ, the Sub is ahead of the Yacht ! and a Sub can sink a Yacht. Only joking lets keep it fair, as both are nice watches.

DWdrummer · 17 January 2010, 06:37 AM

This is a close call. I voted for the TT Sub. It goes so well with everything and stands out just enough.

Zirotti · 17 January 2010, 06:41 AM

Yacht-Master. TT is yuck.

Actually, the YM looks like crap on you. Sell it to me ;)

scl6118 · 17 January 2010, 06:45 AM

Stay with the YM! The reason is that Im not a fan of TT anyway. The YM is beautiful!

Watchdog · 17 January 2010, 06:46 AM

Both are great, but I believe the TT bluesy looks best on you.

The bluesy is one of the Rolex models I first fell in love with. In this case, IMHO, it's the quintessential Rolex for the quintessential Rolex fan!

Phil G. · 17 January 2010, 06:51 AM

As much as I love the Blue Sub, the YM is more unusual and unique. If given the choice, I'd go with the SS/YG YM. Interesting the poll is exactly tied. I think that means you can't go wrong either way.

View Poll Results: Hey JJ......
The TT Blue Sub looks better....	170	46.45%
The SS/Pt. YM look better....	196	53.55%
Voters: 366. You may not vote on this poll
