I Like it, 42mm is nice. Cost is out of the ball park.

I'll pass on the Sky Dweller. If the looks aren't enough to totally put me off, the price is. But the new Yacht Master looks awesome. Anybody know the price on it?

the old YM retail was around 11k. i think the new one with the blue dial will be close to that or a bit more

Hmm...well, I like it, but not enough to pay $3k more than retail for a Sub.

its a hard sell when you compare it against the new subc. you really have to love the YM and the fact that it has a platinum bezel

Price aside I actually don't mind it at all. Not convinced of the use of Romans, and I don't like the cyclops in general, but other than that I think it looks really pretty good. Something definitely different from Rolex.
