I love it and I want one. It's even more beautiful in real life than in the pictures!

Absolutely stunning watch. Very versatile, comfortable, a bit blingy but yet still rare and not instantly identifiable as a Rolex. I love Yacht-Masters although I am partial to the SS Plat version.

Go for it!

I bought this one as my first Rolex last year. All I can say is that I absolutely, without a doubt, bought the right one for me first. Like someone else said, I stare at it all day but still don't know the time lol. It's hypnotic when you're wearing it.

Personally, the original is the best YM option. While the blue dial with red hand is striking, it clashes, in my opinion, with the wide and light-colored bezel. Just doesn't work, color wise.

Quite original and beautiful. I don't actually like the watch without the blue dial. For some reason, the blue dial pulls it all together for me.

Here's a wrist shot when I tried it out in an AD.

YM1 - What do you think?

I've had the SS/Platinum version and the dial is stunning. I've seen the new azure dial but not sure how I'd like it.

The TT are a matter of personal taste.

The one thing if like to see is a Serti treatment on the original dial. That would really sparkle since dial itself looks like diamond dust in bright sunlight.
