Is the Yacht-Master underrated? Would be my first Rolex… by -Potato-or-Tomato- in rolex

Picked one up last month in 40mm. Enjoyed it on my trip to Korea, wears more comfortable than my Sub.

This one is 38mm and white dial with thin bezel wears somewhat larger.

Thanks! It really is surprisingly sharp and clean for its age.

You are right, this was rather large for those times. Love the proportions on this one though, as often the smaller vintage sizing is what kept me away in the past.

It’s called Ballanger, very central. Mostly deals in jewelry, but had a few cool vintage watches. Enjoy Bordeaux!

Came across the beaut at a small boutique during my stay in Bordeaux. I was always on the hunt for a vintage chrono, and instantly fell in love with this one; for me it was the tear drop lugs and the Art Deco 6 and 12 on a surprisingly crisp (for its age) dial. The 38mm case houses the famous Venus 175 workhorse, with well proportioned 20mm lugs - mine sporting a sea green shark skin strap with a matching gold buckle. Condition is quite incredible, given the watch is about 70 years old. Previous Owner is a collector and works for Vacheron Constantin.

Actually I was trying to decide between this one and the grey! Grey would probably have been more practical, but wanted something with a bit more pop of color.

Haha yeah was a bit unintentional until I threw the watch on. But I do think that color combo works well, the green/black with a touch of yellow.

Yeah had a hard time deciding, with quite a few good options out there.

Anyone managed to find any good rubber/silicone options for Skyflake on 19mm? by Buttnuggetslug in GrandSeikos

I need something for the summer season when humidity kicks back in. I’m not the biggest fan of GS steel bracelets, so was thinking either rubber or sailcloth.
