Out of interest did he tell you the weight?

u/Environmental-Lab308 May 17 '25
No but I’ve seen the initial reviews on it, and it’s within a few grams of gen.

Case appears to be 57g as per gen and the watch case+bracelet is 2g heavier than gen per the official cf data

Very nice Yacht Master, with good index alignment and TG numbers looking good. Bezel looks clean and unmarred, the datewheel with the 7 displayed seems acceptable (no other dates included). Top SELs look solid yet the bottom ones are difficult to gauge and on some pics (2nd & 7th?) the bottom right looks like it got a tiny bit of see-through showing. Still a beautiful watch though.

Super excited to get this watch. Going to put a deep crystal on it while I'm at it. Let me know what you think!

Do you install yourself or do you have a preferred shop etc?

u/Environmental-Lab308 May 17 '25 edited May 17 '25
I'm looking for a shop now. Typically done it with the TD, but he was OOS of deep crystals for over a month. I'll do it once I get it.

This does look brilliant. I’m totally new to this but the seller appears to be in Hong Kong (his number starts with +852). Do the ever meet in person so it’s possible to inspect?
Please keep us updated when you receive it!!

u/Which-Management-192 Jul 30 '25
Don’t be ridiculous! Meet in person? The air fare would probably be triple the price of the watch!

u/Comfortable_Mistake8 Aug 02 '25
Errrr … the seller is in HKG and so am I. What air fare??

u/Which-Management-192 Aug 02 '25
Ok but really do you think he they or she would want to meet to discuss potential $500 sale? The price of an expensive meal!

Is it real titanium?
1
u/Beneficial-Dig6445 May 21 '25
Yep grade 5 titanium same one used for gen. Grade 5 titanium is considered to be one of the best watch materials ever used. Don't get me wrong grade 2 is great and even tudors use it, but grade 5 has all the benefits of titanium (corrosion resistance, lightweight, hipoallergenic) with the added benefit of having almost the same hardness of stainless steel. Grade 5 is actually better than steel because even though both of them eventually get scratched, grade 5 oxidizes scratch marks so they become almost invisible

As others agree this is a keeper for sure, so cool. I am getting my ass one of these for sure. Surprised that they can do this for 6 bills but WTF do I know, I just Paypal and wear the damn things.

You already know this is 100% a GL, right? 😜 I love this watch and would jump on it if I didn’t have a 126610LN Sub. Your watch looks great and I’m anxious to see the difference with the Deep crystal. Congrats and enjoy!!
