How do owners like them yacht Master Titanium?

[Copasetic]

There have been various threads on the pricing, but those that own the watch, whether you obtained it from an AD or went grey, how do you like it?

I don't own one but was underwhelmed and uninterested when I checked one out at my AD.

I wanted one when introduced but now would pass at msrp and definitely not grey pricing.

I got to see and try on at my AD - I thought is was fantastic. Love the bezel and the weight.

It’s an awesome daily. Pleased with mine.

Ditto

I love that Rolex tried something new with the YM

I was impressed with the watch when I got to check it out at my local AD. It really is beautifully engineered and finished. Problem is, I don't think I'd wear it much if I were to add it to my collection. I like the heavier feel of precious metal even more than stainless steel lately, so going titanium is a different direction. That's just me, though. I think it would be a killer watch to add to a Rolex collection.

I wanted one when it was first announced. But since it’s a hard piece to get, didn’t even put my name done at my AD since I already have a list of watches on the waitlist with them.

Then I had completely forgotten about this watch for a couple of years until I saw it on display at my AD a month ago. Tried it on and it was very underwhelming. It’s extremely light, as expected, but it’s large and thick and doesn’t look very refined.

VERY pleased with mine. It's easy to wear daily and makes for a great option in a collection.

The "yacht" nomenclature alone makes it polarizing regardless of weight, materials, or appearance. Had it been modeled as a Sub, far fewer people would be against it.

Enthusiasts pay more for lightened versions of sports cars with exotic materials so why not watches?

It's only 11.68mm and thinner than any professional oyster case Rolex model out there. It appears even thinner on the wrist having only about 8mm of case side and bezel edge. To me it wears smaller than a 41mm Sub.

Titanium is that one metal that has a dull luster to it. I do not think you can make it shine like SS or other precious metals. It just looks too dull and gray.

Yes, but it’s lug to lug is 2mm more than the Sub. It doesn’t wear smaller.

You can make titanium shiny. Late 90s Litespeed bicycles were obnoxiously polished and shiny. They were a titanium alloy, though. Unsure what Tudor and Rolex use.

I wore it pretty much all summer. It’s good. In fact I bought a Daytona 126500 black the same week and haven’t even bothered sizing that.

Looks like a pretty cool watch.
