dave47 6,477 Posted August 14, 2018 Good Evening, All! For the first day of the new week, this newly worn ROLEX TT YACHTMASTER with brown dial and TT bracelet. It came in its ROLEX box from The Gate & paid about $100 for it. It's quite different with its brown dial and brass/gold bezel, at least that's what it looks like to these old eyes. I've found myself buying more reps from The Gate (fully noting the inconsistent quality they have) because their prices are more affordable for me. I've noticed over the past year or so that reps are increasingly getting more expensive -- not just from TDs, from sales forums as well; and I've noticed a change in what is described as a "cheap" rep. E.G.: for a long time, "cheap" meant UNDER $100 -- most likely $50 to $75. NOW, "cheap" is being declared as OVER $125 to $150 or more. Because I'm on a retired income, I do have to be more frugal. Still, this GATE watch is really attractive & plan to wear it more often. dave: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I probably don't need further encouragement to take pics of my watch (at least my wife would say so!) but will gladly post some more. Today I took the SuperOcean out for some fresh air. Guess I have a thing for dark dials! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
