My pair

Finally getting around to my first post here on the forum. I love my combination of rolex's (I also own Omega/Panerai/IWC). I think the 214270 Explorer and 126621 Yachtmaster are a great combination that compliment each other well. I put the Explorer on a Rubber B strap, really brings out the matt black dial nicely. Not enough love given to the Two-Tone YM...this beauty looks so different depending on the light conditions....makes me stare every time.
I was able to pick up both watches quite easily. I waited about 6 months for the explorer and 2 weeks for the YM. Also managed to snag a OP34 bright blue dial for my wife when we picked up the YM.

Thanks! I fell in love with TT YM as soon as I saw, they had the bright blue and the rhodium dials, but the TT is just something special

Awesome combination of Rolexes. So different from each other, could be a 2 watch collection. Congrats on the great haul.

i agree that the YM40 is top tier...and glad that others haven't realized it yet as they are still fairly easy to obtain overseas. I really like the blue dial with red text but I already have seamaster with blue dial and red text and I like variety in my watches

The Rubber B strap completely changes the Explorer, basically gives me two watches in one :-)
