NEW 18k Yachtmaster 2
Well I finally pulled the trigger on my first all gold Rolex, or any watch for that matter. I traded my 18k/SS Yacht 2, my SS GMT 2, and cash for it. I really like it but find myself being very cautious with it. Oh well, I am sure that will pass with time. I wanted to thank everyone in this forum for there advice.

Chris

Wow, congratulations. My SS YMII gets noticed so I bet the gold version will get more attention.

nice! Congrats! Dont worry, the baby-ing phase will pass. The weakest point of that watch is the crystal anyhow, and you're used to that on your other watches.
