Maybe my favorite Rolex. It's just so good, yet so subtle. And extremely comfortable. Happens to be a perfect size for me too.

Have it love it!
I traded a Daytona for this so I'm not entirely bias, and it's truly beyond me how this model is so unpopular...the name is awful tho I have to admit, it makes you not want to own it lol

Congratulations, I have had mine a couple of years and love it. I love the colour combination of the gold with black.

I'm learning to really hate the oysterflex for a lot or reasons. I finally removed it and put a "James Bond" style, NATO strap on my WG Yacht Master. Much more comfortable, and easier to get the "right" size.




edit: (Correction) meant James Bond style, "Regimental belt strap". James Bond (in movies), never wore a "NATO strap".

One of my favorites by far. Beautiful watch. Out of my price range though unfortunately.

Congratulations. I had the 40mm and found the clasp uncomfortable on my smaller wrist. I now have the 37mm, for me extremely comfortable. Such a stunning watch. I regularly get complements.

saw your other post about the OF Daytona.

Since I had both the WG Daytona and the YM RG 40, I'm curious to know which one you like better?

Cause I really can't decide

Thanks. I like the Yachtmaster over the Daytona because of legibility. Otherwise i like them the same.
