Huge congrats buddy! I've gotta admit, the 116655 is REALLY tempting me lately.

!!!!!!!!!!

Great photos, too.

I've seen one of these in real life (on a plane), and was amazed how great it looked. Subtle, but you know it's there. Just gorgeous.

Time for the Daytona to go back on the jubilee?

I know aesthetic is subjective but I think the Rose Gold Yachtmaster is the most beautiful watch in the entire lineup. The combination is so unique. oysterflex, rose gold, matte dial, gold/white/red writings and matte black bezel. Damn! a perfect symphony perfectly orchestrated.

haha I might just throw the daytona on jubilee as per your suggestion, right now it's snuggled up with my pepsi 16710, so it's tough to break up that config.

I got the daytona set up before even getting the YM, so no.

I totally agree. Like or not, you have to admit, it's quite a unique look and a completely unique look for rolex. There's nothing else like it. The characterstic it's missing is the dress quality, but that's clearly not what this watch is for. And while I think you could wear it with a suit, it's so sporty and casual which is totally my style!
