These guys have good points. I'm close to change my vote from YM to Toss Up. That YM sure is pretty, though.

JJ, I have to say - the Yachtmaster looks as though it was made for your wrist!

You HAVE TO KEEP IT!

The YM looks very awesome on your wrist. The sub seems a bit flashy to me.

Love is a strong word ....

As much as I love the TT look on the sub it would have to be black to get my vote so I voted for the YM........ But JJ you really do that Blue Sub .... Is it TRUE

While I think the YM suits you JJ, I'm voting for the TT blue Sub for better contrast!

The color on the TT Blue is specatacular, really eye catching. However, my personal choice would be the very classy YM. Just my taste.

I think that you want the Blue Sub really.
That is my preference too!

Keep the YM.

It is the most uniqe of your watches.
Selling it is harder.

+ since you would be getting a BRAND NEW "OLD" tt sub.. youd be shooting ur self in the foot right there after taking a big hit on selling the YM.

Its not looking good from the get go. Keep the YM

BTW. Did you watch the video?
X2 Trade the TT GMT c for the Blue TT Sub if you must have it, but not 2 Two Tone watches in the collection.

My thoughts goes like this.....

I like YM over Bluesy....

But, if YM ever got an updated bracelet and the price plunge a little, I would kick myself in the nuts.

16613 is at it's best and as we know, will be replaced soon.

But all that aside, if I am one who don't care about updated models (Which I do), I will keep the YM. Besides, you already got a TT 2c.

Both beautiful watches JJ. If this poll tells you anything, it is that there are an equal number of proponents for both. So if you can purchase the bluesy outright with relative ease, by all means do so. But if it's a question of selling the Platty to acquire the Bluesy, then I wouldn't do it.

That's about as serious a post as you'll ever get out of me.

I voted TT blue, just like the other thread. Nonetheless, best of luck with your decision JJ, and wear whichever you choose in the best of health.

Here's another way to compare (his inner debate over his favourite has gone on for some time now):

What kind of thread is this? Waste of bandwidth...


The YM matches your arm better, it's the same color.

I have to say the blue sub looks much better on you, yellow gold really suites your skin complection. I just wish you would sell the lot and go for Gold

Platty, even though im a massive Sub fan i find the two tone a little blingy. The Platty looks class on your wrist.
