Ivan5 shares the culmination of a 15-month wait for a Rolex that, while initially a departure from his purist inclinations, ultimately captured his imagination. His acquisition sparks a discussion among collectors about the allure of unique Rolex references and the evolving landscape of acquiring highly sought-after timepieces. This thread offers valuable insights into the emotional connection collectors form with their watches and the practicalities of navigating the luxury watch market.
I feel even more extremely fortunate than I thought (at the time) I had the opportunity to buy this WG YM about a year ago from an AD... chose ultimately the DS Cameron, the colors just killed me lol... but I LOOOOVE this YM. Congrats and enjoy!!!!
Pity rolex doesn't use same mate ceramic on submariner too
Yachtmasters was always my thing, I was wearing my 116622 last couple of months and didn't feel like taking it off. I bought it "hungover" in 2009 during Oktoberfest, next to Hofbrauhaus in Munich. Never looked back, just grew on me...lol
15 months, that is huge. I saw a yachtmaster in a store. I belief it was an used yachtmaster.
Interesting story. Visit AD’s, grey market traders, watch collectors. When i start my journey in 2018 - April, i met the world. I saw the yachtmaster this year in the shop of a grey market trader. The famous models on stock. It is a gamble, and trust is a delicate thing. They got several Hulks, and a 116610LV used they ask around €13000. I think it is better to be on a waiting list of an AD with a good name be an excellent Rolex AD. At this time i am looking for a certain Longines. Not an expens
Just a plain, but a wee bit complicated character who can come across as a Queens mobster wannabe with keeping his secrets intact lol..
