Yellow gold daily use—-

I’m thinking about wearing a yellow gold Rolex every day! And I’m not worried about the scratches! I would love to see pictures of battle tested precious metal watches.

Here is one from 1984. 100% original, unpolished case - seems to have held up quite well.

If you treat a watch in a way it would get scratched it will happen with a steel or Gold watch. Gold watches are certainly more prone to being scratched but if you're someone who takes very good care of watches that won't matter. If you beat up your watches, it's going to get owned.
