Yachtmaster 2

[pwrslider]

How soon until we see a good rep of the new YACHTMASTER II???

 

[bazonkers]

How soon until Rolex puts out a nice looking gen of the Yachtmaster II?

Sorry Maybe it'll grow on me ...

TBH Asides from the Gaytona the YM2 is THE ugliest Rolex... $35,000 for THAT? With the money you could buy a TT Submariner [$6,500], TT Daytona [$12,000], SS DJ [$4,500], Air-King [$3,500], Yacht-Master PL/SS [$7,900] and still have money left to buy a nice watch box for $300 and a safe to put them in...

 

[bazonkers]

The YM2 is $35,000?!?

 

[guanaco]

Edit: Never mind, the $34,850.00 for the White Gold version... Plus tax it's more than $35,000...

$31,500 is for the Yellow-Gold version... :|

Imagine the panerai's you could get with that! Maybe even a Royal oak

I am still stunned by Rolex putting their name on the "Clownmaster II". That is without a doubt the most horrendous looking watch Rolex has ever pumped out. Well, as a standard watch that is. Some of their Blinged out customs are horrible also.

Mmm..see what you mean. I love Rollies, but this is a step too far?

 

[pwrslider]

ahhhhhhhhhh... I felt the same way initially..........but let a little bit of time go by....and it may just grow on you. One things for certain....this rollie can not be confused with any other watch...?!?

I agree with pwrslider. Somebody popular like brtelec will get a black faced dial version and everybody will follow. :wink:

It will grow on you like a fungus.

 

[guanaco]

I still can't get over the fact that you can get a nice Daytona like my dream meteorite dial in white gold for $20k and still have left for a yummy two-tone GMT Master 2... for the price of one of those...

Never gonna happen. I do however like your comparison of this watch to a fungus, R2! :mrgreen:

 

[R2D4]

Thanks brt! I still think you are being too modest. People will follow your lead. :mrgreen:

Like lemmings off of a cliff.

This watch was just reviewed by one of the watch magazines. Very highly rated. Very accurate. Rolex only makes a few and only in gold, so $30K+ limits ownership. The countdown feature apparently works very well.

Still, as much as I like Rolex, I'm not looking at getting one of these.

 

[brtelec]

I read the review and it tested as I would expect a watch of this price point. That has nothing to do with the fact that it is ugly.

 

[guanaco]

I'm gonna buy everyone of them and then I'll melt them and rid the world of the only ugly Rolex...

 

[brtelec]

Well now I did not say it was the only ugly rolex! There is one other that leaps to mind, but enough said about that.

Let's see it, I have a barf bag next to me so shoot! :lol:

I think the current Milgauss, looks like shit. The green and orange combination and the lightning bolt second hand reminds me of something you would find in the $9.95 rack at Wal-Mart.
