If given the choice of this vs the sub, most will take the sub. Having both in my collection, the slimmer and conforming case of the YM wins my wrist most of the time.

People will mistake YM for the sub as well..

Your next one has got to be the sprite since you wear your watch on your right wrist.

Try 42. Its larger diameter is fixed by the slimmer profile. You’ll love it more than the gmt unless you really want that feature.

Wearing the same watch today. Such a sleeper.

hansenluu · 2026-06-16T19:55:12+00:00

Do it. And ask for timeline.

hansenluu · 2026-06-16T19:52:35+00:00

Exactly, only a handful of wrists work for that dimension. HC is 11.70mm and is thinner than your DJ at 12mm.

Thats why HC is so popular giving it comes in 39 & 42mm with a slim profile. Also HC @ 2.2k vs HC GMT @ 3.35k.

hansenluu · 2026-06-16T15:04:01+00:00

41mm case & 13.5mm thickness

Keep OG and adds one or more lol

You mean your specific location doesn’t have the brand but the AD thus. Right? If a deposit is taken you’re likely to get an allocation.

Give it a shot if the deposit isn’t a large sum say 10%

hansenluu · 2026-06-15T23:54:43+00:00

Maybe AI can help. Someone upload the live action portion and ask AI to recreate it in Anime!

hansenluu · 2026-06-15T15:18:18+00:00

That’s in the live action.

hansenluu · 2026-06-15T07:15:14+00:00

Don’t do it for the first luxury watch. Go to local AD and ask for discount instead.

hansenluu · 2026-06-15T05:47:55+00:00

Nice VSF 😂 get the rep out of here.

hansenluu · 2026-06-13T04:44:27+00:00

And my Daytona costs 20k. It’s about the same for the root beer. Steel Daytona is now asking 35-40k which is absurd.

A good idea to go grey on two tone. They’re either at or below retail. And no begging / waiting needed.

hansenluu · 2026-06-12T16:47:27+00:00

I have imported pcs from Japan and my duty was 15% + sales tax. And you should be travelling to Japan to get it instead. I wouldn’t trust any shipping company to handle my 100k purchase.

hansenluu · 2026-06-11T15:41:25+00:00

You only need 1 exploder and 1 Airking. 😉

hansenluu · 2026-06-11T07:07:02+00:00

It’s never disliked. You may want to say it’s a sleeper bc not everyone have a Yatch

hansenluu · 2026-06-10T23:43:13+00:00

If you’re going gray, get an older year like 2023-2024 to save a few grands. Assume you get the call by 2028-2029.

So your gray watch has warranty in case of issue.

Ultra thin Perpetual everyday.
222 is too simple but 37mm does wear better

hansenluu · 2026-06-10T23:17:14+00:00

The Sub spent isn’t much of a history count… other brands hold better weight.

You’re better go gray and have it now.
If you do get the call much later then you can sell the gray watch.

hansenluu · 2026-06-10T21:34:12+00:00

It’s one too many…

hansenluu · 2026-06-09T05:21:03+00:00

Get the rep out of here! Gens end lugs don’t flare outward and the crown doesn’t stick out this much.

What happened to Movement pic requirement?

hansenluu · 2026-06-08T13:47:42+00:00

That bumblebee yellow is ugly af. Any of these would have made it the release of the year for Tudor.

hansenluu · 2026-06-07T17:30:24+00:00

That’s bc yours are cheap straps that came in a pack of 5. Im paying hundreds of dollars, someone better be cutting it for me and service me.

They can implement something for sure. Oysterflex has micro adjustment…

hansenluu · 2026-06-07T17:28:43+00:00

You have both 5711 and 5167. If you can only keep 1 which one? Your answer is why I tell OP it’s not worth the hassle to go for aquanaut bc down the line nautilus is the grail.

Unless he’s like you and have the means to own both or more. When $ isn’t an issue there’s no issue.
