Yacht Master Blue Dial
I haven't heard much about this reference since it was introduced a few years ago. I tried one on at my AD today and i was shocked at how nice it looked on the wrist. What's the general consensus on this watch?

A friend of mine recently bought one and it is stunning.
 It's been very well received here.

Yacht Master Blue Dial
The YM blue is not so common in the wild as compared to Subs.

Love the blue dial YM. I'm torn between the YM and the 116613LB as my next Rolex.

Been trying to resist this one for a while too. This thread is definitely not helping.

for me, it's platinum dial all the way, but, luckily there are great options for different tastes. the dial is quite nice.

I love mine. Definitely not the most common Rolex.
I've had mine 6 months, don't wear it a whole lot, but I do have a scratch on the bezel. I don't think it's overpriced if you buy from a trusted seller. |

Unbelievable beauty. The raised fonts in the platinum bezel is all the money.
Here's a couple shots of my buddy's, that i had it for a few days.

Pretty awesome watch overall. I have seen more than a couple of them listed on eBay between $8 K and $9 K....
So that means, I could have a relatively rare, great looking watch, for the same price as a "HULK"? I think that is a "No Brainer".....
