Yes. It's another Rolex dilemma. I know, I know...I tried the Datejust and it just didn't love me back, so I am going a bit smaller. I now know that I don't want any color on the dial, so here are the new contenders: Date (34mm, pic on right) with silver stick dial OR midsize Yachtmaster (35mm, pic on left) SS/platinum. First, pics of the watches alone (stock photos, sorry):
Yacht-Master (left) . . . . . Date (right)
For those of you not familiar (read "obsessed") with Rolex, the dial of the YM will be slightly smaller than that of the Date even though the case measurement is 1mm larger. Now, the watches "on." I don't have a pic of the Date on, but I do have one of the Oyster Perpetual which is the same size (just no date feature) for comparison. OP on left, YM on right in this photo.
I can only choose ONE, and it will be my daily wearer watch for a LONG time, so choose wisely for me!
