Incoming - PM YMII

Have always wanted a Rolex. I originally wanted a Daytona, however, my wrist is large and could not even get the Daytona to latch and it looked very small on my wrist. I also really liked the YMII despite most peoples opinion of the watch. In person the watch is incredible. Very happy with the choice.

Great watch! Congrats! My favorite YMII by a mile. SS is nice but if you're going with this sucker might as well go Gold if able in my eyes!

I agree. While the YM II isn’t for me, the gold version is the one to get! Looks great on you!

Btw, do you use the special regatta timers? It’s a very cool complication. Enjoy!!

Will not use the timer. I find that I have never used any of the features of any of the watches I have owned. Only the time.

Looks awesome -- congrats! Agree this is one professional line watch that I much prefer in either TT or solid YG. It's way too large for me to ever wear, but I certainly admire it. I could never imagine it as a daily wearer but definitely one of the coolest "weekend" watches you could have in your collection!
