Finally !!New Blue Yachtmaster
After being repeatedly told this widely anticipated piece would not show up in North America until late October /November ..one showed up at local Rolex Dealer Monte Cristo Jewelers and true to their word they called on the last Saturday of September and Bam! I was wearing it within hours
In comparison to my GMT Master 2 and new Rolex submariner the piece wears and looks more refined than the GMT and certainly the maxi cased sub.the Yahtmasters case is thinner and dressier than than the GMT or Sub but the overall bezel and dial diameter are equal to its older siblings and they all still share a 40mm case as well. While not mandating the new maxi case the larger hands and markers on its upgraded maxi dial are a updated look to the previous version as well as the new Bracelet upgrades and coveted clasp with extension ,not to mention the 8 hour Lume.All in all ......if you liked the last YM your gonna love this one !dont expect to see them much less discounts for some time to come as Rolex may make this their next SSDaytona ..easy to manufacture if the will is there |

Upload the pics to an image sharing site like ImageShack (it's free), then post a message here and use the 'insert image' button to enter in the URL of where you upload the image ...

Save them to your computer, then upload them using the 'paperclip' (Attachments) button when posting a reply in this thread Or as Cary suggests, save them to a photo hosting site and then insert the link(s) in your reply No pressure, but the whole of TRF (especially Joe) is waiting for you...

No worries In case anyone is wondering what I'm talking about, here is a screenshot... (you need to 'go advanced' when you reply to get the paperclip option)

Check it out on Rolex website.. I have yet to see Rolex sit on the design board for a watch to be called "new". The world creates, while Rolex hybernates! Not for me! No offense seaking2!

I got tricked into checking this thread again and no pictures. YM is a grail watch for me so let's see what version you got!
You have to be holding a banana or I won't believe it!

Sorry, but it's been 3 weeks and the OP has not returned...IMO if he was that excited about posting...and on the Watch Review section he would have already posted pics by now if there were any to be taken (plus, attaching pics here is the same process used when attaching a pic to an email). Was hoping to see some actual shots and see that he actually owned the watch, but outlook not good...

He wanted it so badly that he created it,in his mind! I do hope he recovers and resumes a normal life with or without the Blue YM. He seemed like a decent fellow,he may want to seek professional help.
