Please, PLEASE don't take this the wrong way, but IMHO I think that the Platty looks way better on you because it matches all the silver arm hair you have.

To me the platinum Yacht-Master looks much better than the blue Sub.

WHOA!! Just got home from my daughter's birthday celebrations.

Looks like the YM is winning by quite a long way. But like I said, guys.......just lying low for a while......shall see how it goes.

For now, it's just status quo!!

Thanks once again for participating in this thread and for all your replies.

Cheers - JJ

The thing is JJ you have the YM now, in your hands....to play with, admire and wear....

You don't have the Bluesy, but you know it intimately.....it's been in your hands many many times to play with, admire and wear.....but because it's not there now you hanker for it because you love it so......

If you switch the YM for the Bluesy.....my guess is the hankering feeling would not go away....maybe briefly....but it would start all over again for the YM....

To sum up.....to be truly 100% happy you need both....

I voted for you to keep the YM by the way

YM a classic looking watch, you have had several blue's and changed everytime (for your own reasons) if you loved the bluesy so much I dont think you would have swapped in the first place. KEEP THE YM....... + I have one and it's my fav.

Wait a year and then buy the blusey.

JJ, strangely, although I love both watches, and currently seeking a Blue TT sub, I have to say the YM looks better on you... Due to your arm-hairs... Not joking.

They both suit you well, but Blusey the more so...


Just make sure that you have the new one blessed as a precaution against bad luck...



Cheers

Keeping the YM makes for the much more diverse and interesting collection that you have now. Adding the Bluesy leaves you with two Subs and less diverse.

Keep the noble YM!

If your concern is the cosst of repairing dings, use the YM for only special occasions...

Gotta say the YM - even though i like the sub better - - - strangly, i think it's because it goes better with the grey arm hair - - is that creepy?

On the last Poll I voted for the decision is finally yours... but said that since you love the Blusy so so much to just get it!

This time I voted for keep the YM... because it looks really good on you when comparing the photos of the two watches.

If you're really crazy about the Blusy then get it, but I would not want to sell the YM.

Good luck.
