That issue should be confined to the top shelf, away from children and people of a sensitive nature.

The king who had the Tah Mahal designedand built for his favourite wife,was so overcome when he saw the beauty of the end result that he ordered,the architects right thumb,cut off,to keep him from designing similar beauty ... In the case of the YM II they should do the same to the designer,for the opposite reason,to keep him/her from designing similar ugliness.Pathetic design

To throw my $0.02 in the pot.......everyone wanted Rolex to come out with something new....well they did. The YM II is really something different. Quite unique actually. The Milgauss also.....
But i think really most people wanted revamp's of exsisting models.....ceramic Sub's, etc. Because for the most part I think most members on this forum are sports models fans and the have an affection to their particular models and would like to see something new(with their model only or similiar). Myself included, I bought the new TT GMT II because I love the GMT's. Will I buy a YM II....no way, but then again the YM didnt appeal to me either. Nor the Milgauss but I can appreciate them just the same. I love the vintage series of GMT's, would love to get my hands on a 1675 GMT (year 1965 if anyone has one!!). I think those are classics..... ![]() ![]() ![]() But I am at the same time glad to see the company coming out with new idea's. So if they have upset the 0.0001% of Rolex owner throughout the world here on this forum, I think they will still sell +850000 watches this year and next year...and so on.

The white gold version looks much better IMHO. I saw a friend yesterday he has one of the current ss&plat ones. did look nice but not my choice.
What does fascinate me is the workings of the thing. I went and had a virtual play of it on the Rolex website. I must be a bit thick as I could not get it to work properly nor could see the point, then again I am not a yachtsman. It may be indespensible to them! I am a few weeks away from my first Rolex and think it is going to be the new SS gmt but must admit the Sub date is calling my name as well...Do I really need two time zones?? |
