YM back from TRF member "Dalton"

Just want to show TRF the outstanding work that was done by Dalton and his company did to my watch.

The pictures DO NOT do the YM justice but the watch looks stunning, like brand new.. He's the man...
He is very easy to work with as well.


Look at the bezel: The entire watch was re-done but the bezel is AMAZING

Before:





And now the after:

Dalton does amazing work! I sent him my wife's DJ that was beat to xxxx, he did an amazing job on both the case and movement. Anyone can polish a case, but not taking too much metal off in the process is an art....Which is where Dalton separates himself from other watchmakers. I highly recommend him.

As a fellow YachtMaster owner, I can see a major difference, especially in the bezel! It looks great!!!

I will definitely consider a bezel cleaning with Dalton if mine gets messed up before I plan to send it into RSC.

Thanks for posting the before and after pics! It's nice to see some content on the YachtMaster
