Was Thinking about the Collection Today...

...and came to a conclusion. I was wearing the AT at the time, and I love the way that watch looks. I can't decide if I like it better on the strap or bracelet, I think the rubber strap, but still unsure.

I really like my 88, I wear it more than the other two combined, I love the hands, the polished case and crown gaurd and also the variety of strap combos.

But the one watch that really has a hold on me is still my YM. If I could only keep one, it would be the Yachtie. I love the polished and brushed combo and the bezel just grabs me like no other watch. To be honest, at times I can't even see the time since the hands blend in with the dial. But at night it glows like a torch. This watch is still a "stealth" beauty in the Rolex line and I love that about it. This is the watch that I have had the longest, and it is still the one that I like the most.
