Incoming - or "I bet you can't have just one..."

I don't post here often. I found the forum a couple of years ago, when I was looking for my first (real) Rolex. Thanks to Tony (justrolexes) I landed a nice Yachtmaster.






But as you all know, once you've had one, you can't stop...

So last week I received a package from Randy (sportsmaven20)








I guess I should stop here, and let you guess. But I'm so happy with this watch *I* can't wait..




So here we go; enjoy the watch porn!






















As you can see I'm still working on removing the plastic.


I guess it's time to update my profile!

Terje.

Very nice pieces, but dude, how big is your wrist?? That DJII looks like a 36mm DJ in my 7.5" wrist.

Sorry... - It's a full length band, so I'm guessing around 8" (?)

Gotta be. At least 8. You've got real beauties there.

You can easily (and elegantly) rock any YMII..

Thanks guys for all the nice comments! I do like the blue dials, not decided which is my favorite yet.

Hopefully I can enjoy these two for a while before the itch comes back...

Congrats, the dial looks quite dark there, which I also noticed in the ADs, thought it was a bit lighter.
