Incoming slowly but surely

Put a down payment on this beauty today! Somehow I even got a reduction in price. The AD quoted the wrong price but they kept their word and gave it to me as quoted...
this watch is so beautiful!

What I particularly like about this purchase is the fact that I saw the watch in my AD's window last week and they held it for me for a few days so I could decide whether or not to get it. While things have changed a lot in the last 10 years, it's good to know that there is still an opportunity to do business like back then. I have really been turned off by the difficultly of trying to get specific models and will absolutely not pay inflated grey prices. At first I wanted the CHNR but the ease of this purchase and the outright beauty of the bezel and dial combo of the yacht master has me hooked!

Dang, that looks so good on the wrist. I love the TT on this, the dial, SS, and bezel just pull it together so nicely. And I think the YM case is the most comfortable Rolex I have worn. Congratulations and wear it in great health!

Big congrats and it’s great to see a new YM being added to the family. It’s such a special watch and this combination is gorgeous and pure eye candy. I have the chocolate dial and it’s definitely my favorite. BTW, when these are new the everose bezel has residue on it so a quick wash removes that. You’ll be so happy when you see it in its glory. When I got mine I was puzzled by that. Guess they ship that way. Anyway wear it in good health.

Nice one! And the AD is loving you buying from the shop window, so you may be able to ask for something from the back now, sans a GMT or Daytona of course.
