Hmm, the bracelet end links and the dial printing look a bit odd
What series is this YM?

Seems this syahrul guy has quite a collection.

For a sport watch, YM looks amazing w suit shirt and tie. Something I never thought until I saw in the wild. Sharp! Huge congrats :cheers:

Noticed the fake YM right away. Dial looks like it's got glitter on it to fake the look of the platinum.

Adam, I noticed in one post it was mentioned one of his pieces is a 'fake'. I'm guessing his vast collection is unfortunately all costume in nature?

Reading this thread I think this could be my next pre-owned Rolex purchase.

Nice watch, congrats.

My question is more educational in nature than bashing on the fake watch. From the pix of the YM in question what stands out that the community can focus on that gives away the watch is a fake?
In my opinion the "ROLEX" seems a bit more bold than what is printed on my YM.

Congratulations! nice watch!

One of the best Rolex's ever, congrats!

Almost got one as my first Rolex instead of my ceramic no date. The no date was brand new with full docs, boxes, and the YM was an 09 in excellent condition, near mint I'd say, no docs.
I'm wishing I went with the YM.
Why do the Subs hold so much of their value and the YM depreciate at such a different rate?

I'm sorry I'm very familiar with v bulletin forums but I can't find the delete reply option.

Congrats!

My husband got me my Yachtmaster just before Valentine's Day 15 years ago. I've worn it nearly every day since then and it still looks great...the dial is as fanstastic as it was ok day 1. I love wearing it and looking at it. You are in for many years of use.
