So I've noticed a lot of love for PMs lately (I've given up hope of converting Peter). I was wondering how everyone arrived at their love for gold/platinum?

I started off with steel and thought gold was too heavy for me. Why pay so much more for a gold case with the same movement as a steel model right? It never occurred to me that while the FUNCTION was the same, the FEELING it imparts is so much more different. Given the fact that I buy and love watches more for the FEELING it gives me than any real utility/FUNCTION, it's now a bigger factor in my buying than previously. What about you?
