The Rolex Yachtmaster

[crombie_sg]

Hi everyone, I had a very interesting time reading all the informative contributions. I just bought my first Rolex, a SS/PL YM, last month from an AD in Milan. My watch has the 'ROLEXROLEXROLEX' engraved ring. What I find confusing is that my warranty card list the serial no. as Y15xxxxx. I'm very curious about the 'shelf age' of my watch. Anyone can shed some light on this?

Thank you!

8 total digits means it's a random serial..This is the latest numbering system and means your watch is the latest off the press from Rolex!!
