Congratulations, what an amazing gift! In a sea of black submariners and GMTs the rhodium YM really stands out. I absolutely love it!

Fantastic gift and a great watch... it's my next on the hit-list.

Hoping they stay under the radar a bit longer for my bank balance to recover from 'too many' purchases in 2020... if too many is even a thing!

The YM is an underrated watch, so keep it quiet otherwise no one will be able to get one.

Congratulations of getting this beauty, enjoy it and wear in good health.

Congratulations that looks fantastic on you.

You're quite correct, that and the Blue dial YM are hugely underrated by many on here but imo are fantastic looking watches.

A truly beautiful dial and watch. And, you don't see too many in the wild.

Congratulations!

The rhodium dial/platinum bezel YM is definitely the connoisseur's Rolex. Love mine.

Wear it well!

There's a reason for that, and i'm dumbfounded that people are calling this underrated. The datejust is underrated. This model isn't far from the equally ghastly breitling galactic, and insinuating that it's remotely "dressy" is probably the funniest thing i've read online in about a month. Glad he likes it though, that's half the battle.
