I must stand up and shout, "I finally got a Yachtmaster!" This is the only place I can share that.....where anybody cares

I had to trade in my Submariner though, got it in '93, figured it wouldn't be touched with SS Yachtmaster nearby.

Let me ask.....almost afraid to-
I traded the no date Sub for $3370 and paid $5400 out of pocket----did I get ripped?

Bon Temps · 15 December 2009, 02:59 PM

pictures please!

sleddog · 15 December 2009, 03:00 PM

A big congratulations my friend!!!!

Where's the pics and the all impotant wrist shot??

Rob.

JohnBoy · 15 December 2009, 03:10 PM

We hear ya!! The pics are on you and they are optional (please remember we live vicariously) ...but the Congrats are on us and they are definitely in order!

Ripped? At this time of year?? If you feel good, we feel that way too! Wear in Good Health and Happy Holidays!

donas · 15 December 2009, 03:15 PM

Best watch for me

Few weeks ago i bought my YM here in Dubai for $8200 (brand new). I hope that helps.

Singslinger · 15 December 2009, 05:27 PM

Congrats, it's a great watch!

spuds · 15 December 2009, 05:52 PM

Good Call Friend!!

(Sorry I can't comment on the price btw.....)

mldaytona · 15 December 2009, 07:05 PM

Congrats. Please post some pics.

dalip · 15 December 2009, 07:09 PM

price is fine...main thing is you have the watch you want right now...and they are a lovely piece...I adore mine..and it always gets comments...especially from girlfriends of my wife who always say how "more men should wear watches with that colour dial"...I'm glad they don't ..... makes it all the more special.
Congrats and post pics as soon as you receive it...

Tombstone · 15 December 2009, 08:53 PM

Way to go the YM is such a great Rolex. It is one of the most beautiful Rolex watches made. I love the red letters on the dial as well. Good work.

Desperado · 15 December 2009, 09:05 PM

I completely agree. Had my YM in for warranty work recently and my sub lv spent a lot of time on my wrist. The second I put the YM back on the other day after getting it back, I realized how much more comfortable it is on the wrist, at least for me.

JUSTROLEXES · 16 December 2009, 04:41 AM

Yachtmaster is my watch,

Congrats and wear it in health.

ocwatching · 16 December 2009, 04:45 AM
