Yacht-Master Ti

Picked this up a little while ago. Everything is subjective but all I can say is that I absolutely love it! Perfect size, very thin case at 11.6mm, chamfers, superleggera of course and stealthy.

Finally got to try this one on for the first time a couple days ago and it is AMAZING! The weight compared to every Rolex I’ve worn made me giggle. Definitely want to add this one down the road. Congrats!

Without the stickers it’d be even lighter.

Congrats! Beautiful watch and glad to see someone on TRF getting one! I'm also curious what the spend / allocation process was like :)

Well you can see I’ve got a few watches from the AD. Every AD is different and I have only bought watches I wanted. I think their problem isn’t allocation so much, I think 42mm isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, it’s just there are so few. It’s probably a couple of levels below a Le Mans anyway.

Haven't had it too long but doesn't seem to be too prone to scratches. Think it's down to the finishing where it's brushed all over, even on the sides of the links.

You are 100% right. Not everyone like this watch. It's just so few of them are out there. My AD received 1 last year. I didn't see your signature earlier. Your history is pretty good no wonder you got this. Anyways. Wear it in good health sir!

You’ll be fine. It will touch up ridiculously easy if there is a scratch.
