Incoming SS yacht-master 126622 blue dial

Picked up this blue dial yacht-master yesterday. Just in time for my travels. What a stunner! The touches of red adds to its playful character.

The watch case is svelte and wears supremely comfortably too, unlike the super cases of the current generation of Rolex sports models, which have never sat well on my wrist.

Now I’m really glad that I turned down a submariner for this urbane dweller.

Beautiful watch and the one I would have chosen if it was available when I bought my Sub.

I just saw this at the AD. I was really impressed! Watch was never on my radar until now.

Congrats.

I agree the pops of red on the blue dial provide a great contrast.

Enjoy it and safe travels.

It's such a good looking watch. I'm not sure why I don't own one other than I really like my sub. You don't see many (any in my case) in the wild yet it's not overly inflated in aftermarket price and not that hard to obtain from an AD. It's just one rap star away from blowing up in popularity.

Congrats on the beautiful new watch. I’ve had two in the past, thought of them as a fancier Sub. Wear it in goid health.
