New Incoming - A first for me
Have my name on a “list” with a different dealer for a DSSD JC. Friend was at a local AD getting some watches sized and saw this Yacht Master Rhodium in the case. So no call but jumped in the car to pick it up. They got it in last night and they put it in the display. First purchase at an AD. Feel very fortunate. Couldn’t be happier. Merry Christmas.

Huge congratulations, the 116622 was my first and I thought it was the most comfortable and versatile watch I ever had. Sadly, I let it go.... This is a KEEPER my friend, and I wish you all the season's greetings!

Does the card say the dial is Slate or Dark Rhodium? Inquiring minds would like to know...

Interesting but the new cards seem to omit the dial color. FWIW the sales receipt says "Dark Rhodium".

Ah- must be on the hang tag, as someone else noted. No telling when the switch was made (assuming it is an official switch in name/dial color/both/whatever) for individual watches in the logistics pipeline, but I'm curious to know if it winds up being a different watch or not.

Either way- beautiful find, so big congrats...hopefully my next purchase!

You had me curious so I checked the hang tag - says "Dark Rhodium". Hope you get one soon - really is stunning.

I've got the (now 2 models old) ref 16622 with the platinum dial, and it's an amazing watch. The Rhodium dial in either the 11xx or 12xx versions look like one of those rare occasions when something that was almost perfect to begin with is made even better. Can't wait to get a hold of one.
