Believe everything you heard about white gold!

First thanks to this forum and it's members for all of the amazing pictures posted of the Panda dials, second for the posts on white gold, seeing things in the store is one thing, having in on your wrist and looking at this beauty is a complete different story. For any of you who ever thought WG looks like steel and you have been putting it off, let me tell you, you need to pull the trigger right now! the bezel just sparkles, the color all around specially the bracelet is so amazing to stare at, the weight...wow..I thought my Breitling was heavy, but this thing is heavy distributed evenly, I wore it all day and found myself feeling it constantly on my wrist...being reminded of how amazing it is without making my wrist tired.

Lastly for any of you with any doubt of purchasing from sellers on the forums, not in a million years did I think I would buy such an expensive item online, honestly I don't mind paying extra and getting exactly what I want, but after checking out references, finding the exact watch, year and everything I wanted, it was a no brainer. Great transaction with DavidSW, I think I have gotten better service from him then my AD...lol...seriously with all of the follow-up calls and going back and forth on email in a timely manner it has been a very good experience.

Congrats!

Even if it does sparkle the WG Rolexes are such great sleepers, which I love. Haven't tried the WG Daytona but recently put on the WG Sub. Such a nice heft to it!

Beauty - and I'm sure the savings didn't hurt either...
I had the TT version with that dial and was very happy with it - enjoy!

Congrats on the new piece!

I agree with you on WG, anybody who claims it looks like steel has never spent any time wearing one and is misinformed.
