Yet another addition. It's YG this time.
Hi guys, I've been putting off getting a solid gold Rolex but now I think it's time. Currently, I have two SS and two TT pieces so a YG or RG piece would slot perfectly in there. I've narrowed my choices down to either the iconic DDII or the beautiful YG GMT IIc. Really, it's a toss up between these two beauties. So yesterday, I made it happen and here's my new 116718 black dial.

Many thanks, Mike. I must mention that I've been drooling over the many, many pics of the 718 that you posted.

Great choice. Very nice piece. I'd love to wear a YG piece like that but I don't think I could pull it off that well. Enjoy 'er!

Great choice. I would prefer the GMT over the DJII.
