This early Yacht-Master version is growing on even if I am not a fan of the model. I love the laquered dial and the bezel that perfectly matches to the case

Rolex Yacht Master Yellow Gold.

The Yacht Master first came in yellow gold, with a lacquer dial, in 1992: Much before the steel platinum version which came in the very late 90's, as we more often see it. Strange looking, don't you think? Funny how we get used to think " steel platinum "...  

LOL! Good one!

I remember it from those times...

One of the very first Rolex watches I really fell for was the two-toned version with the white dial.

The YM, in my opinion, is the "prettiest" Professional Rolex. Particularly early ones like this.

Nice timing for this post

I am so envious of my sister who got this as a gift yesterday from her significant other. Rolex make very meaningful presents. Well, my Daytona is still stuck abroad. It was a gift too from my significant others father. He knows me better than I know myse...  

The fantasy is the dream of getting this gold YM

Thats the joy of the hunt (and the work which comes with it)

Yes, very well put, mon ami.

Yes I remember this so well.

And in those days for me gold was the spawn of the devil. Very bold and brave move by Rolex. Obviously wanted to appeal to all those Gin palace Boat owners 😜😜😜. Cool find Nico. M.

Yes indeed. People would swap 3-4 submariners for one.

Do you also remember the good old days when a submariner was black and steel and a GMT was blue and red or black and red. That was all the colour in our lives back then the good old days. What a different world we live in now. Not sure it’s for the best. ...
