At the end of the day it’s a full YG bracelet Speedmaster, so only likely to find favour with potential purchasers who are comfortable spending this amount on a watch like this.

Would be interesting as to whether all the dreadful, bling etc.. vibe of the comments is because it’s YG. I.e. would a WG or PT version be visually more acceptable to forumites?

Would have thought it easy enough for Omega to knock up a few of these in WG to tone it down a bit.

Quite possibly, Neil. I love YG but it has to be in small quantities on subtle watches like smallish or vintage dress watches. Definitely not on a bracelet.
