Nevermind, the poll just came up. I would flip the TT on this one. I am normally a TT fan, but not on the YM2.

Actually, I would flip them both and pick up the YG YM II!

Maybe sell both and get a YG one....What do you think Mike and Tom?

Seriously Heru that is tough choice. I love the WG but went with YG one myself as much prefer the blue bezel. I like the TT one and the RG really stands out on that watch. I guess I'd flip the one I wore less. I can say I love my YG one and wear it pretty much every weekend! Best of luck with decision...Cheers,

The white gold is definitely more unique in the yachtmaster category, while the TT is the quintessential yachtmaster. So really depends if you want the "classic" (even though it was introduce in 2010) what most people associate with, or the off the beaten path choice.

You need the blue bezel so keep the TT. I'd give consideration to the idea of selling both and get the YG.

I'm not normally a TT fan, but the YM2 looks much better in it. So white gold would have to go for me.

Honestly, while this piece isn't for me, the YG looks the better watch. As others have suggested, flip both for this.

It's really too bad the WG does not come with the blue bezel but at least it's unique amongst the YM2. However I still much prefer it over the bi-metal. Recently I got to see the WG piece up close in the wild and it blew me away. The wrist presence and heft are second to none. It's the piece I would keep. It's unique and it's rare.

If you have to keep one, I'd choose to keep the TT. Looks sharper to me compared to the duller look of the WG.

Thanks my friend!

Tough choice between WG and TT but I'd likely keep the WG or really think about both for YG.

I would get rid of both. I bought the s/s version and sold it already, just not for me. Sell both and get a PP!

You'll take a bigger hit on selling WG.
