The only two things I don't like about the YM - 2 is 1) the size is too big for my wrist, and 2) I don't think I could buy a Rolex with the word "Yacht" on it. "Yacht" + "Rolex" is too much for me, but that's my own issue.

HogwldFLTR · 12 November 2019, 09:43 AM

Both are great watches. Not for everybody but who cares!!!

britabroad · 12 November 2019, 09:49 AM

I think the Air King is one of the 'least liked', should alwys be able to buy under list once the greedy resellers see they dont shift.....bump....bump....down the price goes.

Ps. I like the AK!

Would you much prefer wearing a watch that everyone has and loves? Spending 10k on a watch that everyone has, not sure if that is a great idea. Unless you come from an "investment" pov.

NachoNeal · 12 November 2019, 10:28 AM

One of them is great. But the other sucks!

What really matters is if you like them

wonkka · 12 November 2019, 11:29 AM

The only persons opinion that matters is yours.

pickettt · 12 November 2019, 11:51 AM

I tried to guess which two you had before looking. Since I was wrong, you must be doing alright. Buy what you like.

Milgauss white and air king

Xerxes77 · 12 November 2019, 06:47 PM

The Yacht Master II it’s a very cool watch I love it and yes I love a watch who is rare to see on the wild.
DD no need to have any presentation.
In my humble opinion you can do it...and you will hav two Rolex watch clasic and sporty who are rare

Yes regarding YM. I personally think the DD36 president is one of the most beautiful Rolex. The one you have is ok, maybe desirable because of the short run, but doesn't look good to me. The only thing that matters is you like them. Who cares about other people. Enjoy your watches.

Blue MG looks ok.

But the pumpkin - a face only a mother can love. But hey at least it's different!

1William · 12 November 2019, 11:26 PM

I like the DD II so much I have two.

mobster600 · 13 November 2019, 12:05 AM

I guess yes these two watches don’t appeal to everyone. But they don’t have to. They appeal to you and that’s all that matters. Why follow the crowd? Enjoy whatever you want.

173rdabn · 13 November 2019, 12:15 AM

Your watches, your choice. As long as YOU like them, screw other people's opinions. We're all different.

Tricolore66 · 13 November 2019, 12:24 AM

Yes, but the good news is there’s an alternate universe where everyone love your watches and there are long waiting lists, and everyone hates the Daytona and BLNR.

If you love your watches nothing else matters!

Love it, wow. The one on right is the one I have! Love that combo/config.
Now 2 questions:
1- What is your wrist size pls? just trying to see the fit comparing to my wrist (7.5).
1- Between the two DD2s you have, aren't the roman numerals on YG one slightly larger, or is just me?

Thanks so much!

Funny to read the milgauss comment. I have a friend who is a very good attorney, he’s not a showy guy at all, recent bought himself a Milgauss so I tend to think of this watch as somewhat of a sophisticated and intelligent purchase?!

You did. Your “return on investment” may be lower or negative.

I never buy new. Also, never just a good, has to be a steal for me to make a deal.

Oxcart · 13 November 2019, 03:35 AM

I think they are both great watches. The day date ll is under appreciated in my opinion.
