Living in NYC and taking the subway everyday I wanted some options to reduce the bracelet bling and also make it feel a bit more sporty. Super happy with these rubber straps I picked up and the versatility they provide. The steel bracelet is certainly stunning and will be used for more formal occasions.

I love it, it says beach all day long. Of course it looks even better in person.

Thanks! It’s a Horus strap, I like yours also!

Thank you and welcome to TRF, again. I've got one on order and received a 10% off code for my first purchase. I love it!!! BTW, I see you're in NYC. That's my home town (Park and 93rd) although I now live in an MA beach town. Hopefully I'll have it on Wednesday!!!

Looks great in the Miami blue strap, white strap is also very nice.

I like the white one also, it’s fun to have some options depending on the day. The white one is an Everest strap.

Who makes that blue band?

Very neat with those endlinks. I like the dressy vibe. I could try that on my 116622 pt dial for the winter. How do you find the fit of the leather, comfortable?

Thanks. The leather is indeed very comfortable. I have several Everest bands as love their integrated end link system

Such an awesome watch! I hope it stays underrated. These replies obviously tell me I need to improve my strap game to dress this down a bit.

Most underrated model in the catalog.

Agree that this is the most underrated model in the current range.
Beautiful shot, and love the blue strap with red trim, Which adds a very sporty and casual look.
My blue dial 126622 is my favorite.

The light blue is a Horus band and the white one is Everest.

Good eye. Yes, I went with red stitching to match the second hand.

Looks nice!

I’m looking for a deep blue rubber band for mine (below) without the curved finish against the case (looking for a more traditional flat end, don’t mind exposing the case lug steel) and an aftermarket ss deployant with a steel deployant with either easylink or glidelock. Any ideas?

Compared to other 40mm Rolexes, does the Yacthmaster wear large or small? I'm debating between a 37mm and a 40mm YM. I've tried on a 37mm YM which sparked my interest in the model, but the AD didn't have a 40mm YM to look at in person. My wrist is 7 inches.

Smaller. It doesn't have the maxi case so thinner lugs and a case that is more similar to the older 5 digit models. Plus it's a bit thinner so that also helps. 40mm Yacht master can be worn on a relatively small wrist. Maybe even as small as 14cm.

It wears smaller than the supercase Sub. Here's on my 7 in wrist.

Any of my photos are on a 6.5 in wrist. With a 7 in wrist I'd definitely go with the 40mm Yacht-Master.

Hard to find the right strap bit I think this one does it.

[fskywalker]

7 1/8 inch round wrist in my case; think with a 7 inch wrist you will be fine with the 40mm model as the case lugs are curved down and as such provides a very nice fit even on rounded wrists:






unless you want a smaller watch (nothing wrong with that, love 36mm size as well; 36 mm DJ 116139 below)
