New SeaDweller or Plat/SS Yachtmaster

If someone offered you your pick, based on LOOKS alone, what would you take?

They would both be BNIB Z series.

I think they both look great, but I personally prefer the SD. But then that's all it really comes down to, personal preference. It doesn't matter what other people think (even though SD is the better choice.. umm.. ok.. again based on my personal view), what matters most is what do you prefer.

Looks fantastic! I've tried on the YM a few times and it is sexy! Like ice on the wrist! Love my Sub and DJ....tool and elegant...for my third, I can combine them and get the YM!!!!

Bet you miss yours! Go get another!

Plat/SS YM. Hands down. That's only because I already have a SS Sub Date.

For me it would have to be the YM. An absolutely stunning watch which I think it is the missing link in my collection. My next Rolex perhaps??
