The white gold is amazing. People can argue all they like, but IMO the white gold has it's own distinctive hue and lustre. Just as silver and platinum as well. To me, it is the subtle variations that make it most interesting. Often appreciated mostly by the owner of such a watch, and that's what really matters.

That is an awesome photo as well!

Cheers,
Carl

This forum just KILLS me sometimes. Awesome watch like that, and all some DBs can do is comment on your choice of flannel.

Fantastic watch OP

It really doesn’t. If you owned a WG watch, you would realize just how different they really are. The color and shine is completely different.

WG doesn't look EXACTLY like SS...

but saying the color and shine are COMPLETELY different is a stretch too...


to the op, they look very similar, no casual onlooker would ever know or care the difference if it's SS or WG, it's your pocket book and ego.

enjoy the nice looking watch in any event!

I completely disagree. Had a white gold watch and many stainless, couldn't tell them apart. Didn't bother me and I bought the white gold knowing that though.
