Which combo of RG SkyDweller/Yacht Master

Looking for a RG piece on oysterflex with a glidelock clasp. I could do a RG yachtmaster and a SS skydweller (assume black or white face given the difficulty of getting a blue one) or for a similar price get a single RG skydweller slate dial on strap. Having a hard time making the call. Both RG pieces look amazing….do it go for the two piece or the single more expensive one? Thoughts?

I love the slate SkyD but I think I agree here. The RG YM is also very nice and getting a SkyD to go along with it makes a great pair.

Yeah, agree the slate grey SD is the best reference but I just think you get the best of both worlds with this proposed two watch combo.

I'm in a similar position to you, but, already own the YM, so...for me, the first option you have listed is what I'm looking at.

Agree the RG slate SkyD is a beauty, but, even as much as I lust after it, I don't think I would trade the YM for it. (Though I've learned the hard way to never say never lol).

For you, I guess it depends what else is in the collection and what niche the OF and/or SkyD is/are going to fill. Good luck,

Good to hear. I’m leaning the same way. I think the YM would get more wrist time.
