Dads new YM2

Heres a couple pics of my dads new Yachtmaster 2 in Everose and steel. It really is an awesome watch when you see it in person and its not as heavy as i was expecting.





A pic looking out at the second hole of the Ernie Els golf course here in dubai



The rest of his collection he has his daytona on today though

Thanks for sharing Simon.

That YMII is a beauty. I didn't know the gold was Everose

Saw my first in person a day or two ago, it is a beauty (and I thought I was going to hate it). Congrats to your pop. Maybe he'll let you wear it once in a while

Nice collection! Love the YMII

By the way, is that a Patek Philippe Ref. 5146 in his collection? Super nice!

Simon your Dad picked up a real beauty!!! I had the TT YM2 in my collection for a few days, however, sold it to a friend and kept the 216570! Pictures don't do the piece any justice at all one has to see it and hold it in person to truly appreciate the workmanship! Here is the only pic I was able to snap of that beauty before I moved it on! I also can't wait to get back to Dubai!
