question for PM owners

Do you find yourself rubbing the bracelet down on both sides of the dial with your fingers? I do this a lot - I just love the soft feel of the gold.

Am I the only one?

Can't say I've ever done that. But, the PM's are certainly special.

Do you mean the case?

I do put index finger of my right hand on the upper right side of case and my thumb on the lower left shiny side of case?

I think it's like grabbing it's entire heft and saying to myself, "Nice..."

Precious metal fetish. I believe it is covered in the DSM-V psychiatric manual. No cure is known.

I dont find myself doing that either but the feel of PM models have some sort of energy to them. They just feel better on the skin thats for sure.

I do enjoy the feel of gold but can't say I rub "my precious". I can understand it, I just don't do it. Enjoy that beauty. Happy New Year.
