What's going on guys.
My name is Eric. This is watch your style, where I pretty much discuss different watch
trends coming in and out and what's hot and what's not.
Today, I have here the Yacht-Master. Yacht-Master 1 men's 40mm. This is the new one released
in 2012 with that new Sunray dial.
You know what? I haven't seen too many of them out there, even though I've sold many
of them, but I really like this watch. Why?
The other one was a really nice classic design. Very successful watch by Rolex. They probably
sold millions of the other one, with the silver dial, which I'm not sure if everybody knows
this, but the dial on the previous one is actually a platinum dial.
It's made out of platinum with like a bead blast on it, before they obviously apply all
the insignias and all that. And the bezel itself, the actual inner bezel, the insert
is platinum as well.
This time what they did around is that they did it a little bit different. They introduced
this blue dial. It's called I believe the Sunray blue dial. You know they get crazy
with these names. Sunray blue dial.
And the most important thing besides the dial to me, what also makes a difference is this
new clasp, which Rolex finally stepped up the game with the clasp.
For years they were using that stamped design clasp. It's a good clasp, but this is like
a whole other level in clasp-sphere.
Now, something that I want to point out about this new design of the Yacht-Master is, in
the watch game, this is the next level when it comes to the steel Yacht-Master game.
When you see somebody wearing the previous model with the silver platinum dial, it's
a beautiful watch. I'm not going to hate on it. I think it's a fantastic watch.
If you want to buy something that's a little bit more next level beyond the standard Sub
or something like that, the Yacht-Master is a good choice.
Good for everything. Fits with everything. Since it's silver on silver, it matches with
everything.
However, the bad thing about it is that although you might have a 2009 with box and papers
and you picked it up in mint condition, some people might not give you that credit. They
might think it's a 99.
Whereas this one right here there's absolutely no confusion. It's a brand new model. This
thing changes the value of the watch, the fact that it has the blue dial and this on
another level.
The other previous one, you could pick one up probably around as low as 55 to as high
as 7500 depending who you're buying it from and what year and condition. Whereas this
one retails around 12,000. If you want to buy it at the AD, that's your choice.
I think that the right way to buy this watch is pre-owned. You are looking to spend around
9200 dollars.
So this blue dial it separates the men from the boys in this Yacht-Master. When someone
sees you with this watch, you're like "Wow, that's the brand new one!"
That's what still you see right now on the expressway. A lot of ads still with this watch.
As far as the blue, you don't see a lot of these. And when you see it, you're in that
category just like the green Hulk Submariner, that it's like a brand new watch. There's
no confusion. There's no mistaking it.
So, if you're looking to get a nice watch in the 9000-dollar area that's pretty versatile,
the Yacht-Master with the blue dial. Very nice. I like it and I've sold many of them
and everybody's very happy with that watch.
So here's the bottom line. If you're thinking about getting that new Yacht-Master with the
blue dial, I think it's a really nice watch. Goes with everything. Very, very good for
the daily use.
I really like the blue dial. I don't know what it is. They had it before with the two-tone
and the all-gold and they never had it before on the stainless steel and platinum.
Ever since they added it, immediately when I saw the billboard, I was like drawn to it
like, "Oh my God!" It's a solid watch for around that price range.
