It's good looking for sure, but not as good looking as Bentley!

Congrats and great pictures!!

Although we're in the minority, I fully agree with you. For me and my lifestyle, it's just the all around, ultimate example. It's a perfect blend of class and sport while maintaining that iconic Rolex Submariner look. It can be worn on any occasion, and it's platinum coloring complements any color you're wearing. It has a strange mix of wrist presence with its bold bezel and sparkling dial, but while still going unrecognized as a Rolex. Quality and fine craftsmanship is evident, while the Rolex stigma is not applied.

All of Rolexes models are great choices, but the Yacht-Master fits me to a tee.

I just think the yacht-master is the perfect Rolex.. I know many of you would disagree but I know JJ is reading over this post and smiling as he concurs 100%...






Notice the "perfect" crown position.. Lol

One of the Rolex classics Tom! Congrats and wear that beauty in good health! Love it! Hopefully you will bump the YM1 Club with this beauty!

I tried this on yesterday for the first time along with a few other Rolexes and Im afraid this was the most plain and boring by far, just too monochrome, no wow factor, so I would disagree with you.
