The Unveiling
I know that you guys have been waiting all day, but I just got home from work and I am about to fall over. However, I felt obligated to post at least one photo and unveil my new Rolex SS/Platinum Yachtmaster.

Here's a photo of Lisa holding it. Night.

Thanks for the photos Vu, you kept me waiting, but I guess it was well worth it, you can take great photos but the subject matter does help
Congrats, that dial really sparkles and the red second hand is a great contrast.
Nice pose Lisa

It is not often that you hear someone so self-satisfied with their aloneness so I congratulate you with it. And from the demeanor of your post, I suspect that it is not something that you will ever have to worry about!

Nice job!! SS/Platinum YM!!
I wanted the blue sub for quite some time and almost bought one from a member on here, but yellow gold doesn't seem to go well with my skin tone. If they had the blue dial on a SS model, that would be sweet.

The YM crept up on me. Initially I thought it was too plain, but the more I looked into it...the classier it looked. It can be dressed up or down and it has a subtle beauty and it's not so out there like the blue sub.
