Awesome piece, congrats and wear it in great health! Love how they use lollipop seconds hands on the 54 and the red 41.

PS: The Clima Bottle is pretty awesome, too. Good score

Didn't you just get the YM37? Curious how the two compare in terms of feel/wrist presence.

The SA's will generally invite their good clients. I will usually ask after W&W to see if they are having any events to announce the new releases

I did get the YM 37 Rose Gold. Definitely more weight to the YM. Both are great but the YM is a on different level

Well, with that price difference, I'd hope so

Curious about wrist presence, and if they're both the "same" 37mm? or does one wear substantially bigger/smaller than the other?

The YM wears smaller. Lug to lug of 43.7 vs 46mm for the BB54

I did see this. I really like the bracelet. Didn't get to spend too much time with it. Just a bit too big for me though.

Thanks for the comparison pic

Interesting how different 37mm can look between two watches!

I own a BB54 and it has to be the largest wearing 37mm dive watch around due to the long lug to lug and 20mm bracelet...proportions are amazing!

Both watches look great and much better than 6 digit Subs, but I’m surprised that I like everything better about the BB54 except the Snowflake hand!
