Yachtmaster 42 Titanium: I am on waiting list for 6 month

[songxu]

I am not sure it is because I am a scientist and engineer and always appreciate high tech metal such as titanium, I always wish Rolex would add a titanium watch so I can wear it the rest of my life as beater. Finally the Yachtmaster 42 Titanium is here. I visited my local AD and added to their list and started saving. Went to see my AD Pauly Khamou of Tepper in West Bloomfield, MI. He promise he would work on finding one for me. I am holding my breath, and waiting for a phone call next few weeks, hopefully not next few months. I always have some doubt about its size, I am a small guy and seems perfect with the DD 36 Pt on my wrist. I also own a Titanium Seiko with 41 mm dial and 11mm thickness, and wear it with comfort, I am wondering if the Yachtmaster 42 mm may be too big for me? Not sure. Wish me luck guys.

I’m sure you’ve heard these seem to be pretty much a unicorn so I wouldn’t advise any arbitrary time constraints for getting one. I did get to try one on, allegedly the only one my smaller market AD has received. It is very light for its size and in this case appears to be a true 42mm.

I've been curious on this one ever since it was released. I have never seen one at an AD yet. I know it's a hard one to get, but was hoping to at least run into an exhibition piece that I could try on. I don't even recall any incoming threads with this ref. Unicorn seems to be the accurate description for this piece!

Op, these are very rare, I’ve seen 3 of them at 3 different ADs, one AD told me that they have received only one since its release. The others I’ve seen were on display for a few weeks then gone. So they are being allocated clients , I’m sure that you have be a VIP client to get one, some here on TRF have had them allocated in the U.K.

Definitely they are hard to get reference but not impossible..

Cheers,

Few month wait would be amazing.
