YG sub black dial

So I'm in between three YG watches, the sub with black dial, Daytona black dial, Daytona green dial.

Got a quote for 28 on the YG sub, thoughts? I believe it's a pretty solid offer. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Also what would you guys choose? This will be my first Rolex.

Out of those three I would go with the Daytona and black dial. If you let me choose my own while still sticking with those models you listed I would go with a Yellow Gold Blue Sunburst dial. If I got to choose my own YG model it would be a Day Date 40

You can't go wrong with any of them to be honest but if you haven't check out that blue sunburst dial on the sub it's stunning in person.

I think 28 is a bit high. Try for 26 from AD? Id wait for ceramic PM daytona if going that route.

I vote Black Sub as well. Classic colors and very versatile.

Newman Daytona would be my choice, followed by a 116718 (pics from the web).

These would my choices as well if going with a black dial. If open to blue, then the sunburst bluesy would be my choice.

28 seems awfully high for the sub. I would do some shopping around if that's the one you want.

What if let's say someone says it's a watch from 2025? Does that mean I have less time on warranty or does it even matter if it's a fresh stock or not?

Cant go wrong with any of the choices you have presented. Try a TRF Trusted Seller if you are looking for a better price.

Should be around 25.5k-26.5k for a YG Sub.

I due believe there will be a Ceramic Daytona in yellow gold coming out next basel. Might be the worth be waiting for.

If you only want a black dial YG, i would give the GMT a good look.

try them all on first, and see which you like the most. In my personal opinion, I would go for the daytona.

All watches should come from an AD so the warranty applies, but a reseller will have better prices. Looks like price are $26 from an AD and probably $24 from a reseller, check out their prices in For Sale section here.

These were my picks. The glidelock is especially nice with gold watches.
