YM Prices????

I have a question, I am cinsidering buying a YM, the Stainless steel and platnium is around 8,325 and the TT is 8,575. Is only 250.00 difference. One has gold links and the other has stailess steel links. I understand that the PLAT. is more expensive than the gold but what elso makes the YM SS so close to teh YM TT???

Thanks

One, the bezel and dial are both platinum.

Two, people like us are willing to pay the price.

How else could we rationalize that a 16610 stainless SubDate lists for $6,300 Cdn but the TT gold and stainless 16613 SubDate goes for $9,700. The only difference is about $400 worth of gold in the TT but Rolex keeps selling them.
