YM has arrived

After about 2.5 months, my YM has arrived.
Here are a couple pics.


A little flashy for me but I love it.

Gotta love that MOP! 2.5 months is quite a while to wait, though.

Congratulations on the YM. It's a fine looking specimen. Wear it well. Now do you plan to wear it on your large yacht or only on one of the smaller ones?

Thanks all. Was a bit of a wait, but I figured I might as well get the one I wanted up front since the wife was paying for it. Probably just wear it while I'm out panhandling.
It is the full size, heavy bugger.

Crown up, OK. I'll have to try that. Looks pretty sweet to me no matter which way I look at it.
