Cermit / Starbucks or YM Slate / Rhodium ?

Hi All

Just interested to hear people's thoughts on these 2 pieces & what you would pick and why.

Starbucks because the bezel is ceramic and much more scratch resistant than that of the YM.

I chose the LV. One of my favorite watches period. Green ceramic bezel, glidelock, brushed bracelet and it’s a Sub of course.

I think the LV Sub will always get more love because of what it is & what it represents.

Depends on your collection to date IMO. I'd say the LV if you don't already own a Sub, and the YM if you do.

YM. I know I'm in the minority here, but I don't think the green and black go well together. I'd pick a hulk over a YM though.

I purchased the YM40 Rhodium first, and later added the Cermit because they're both beautiful in their own ways.

Cermit more understated with the brushed links, and YM is a bit flashier.

I do think that the LV Sub is more well rounded for any kind of wear with its ruggedness.
