Cant believe I am going to do this

[Fifth Ave Rolex Man]

It is a Beaut!
I'd go for it! I have had it on and it feels FANTASTIC!

[kilyung]

Be bold and go for gold!

LOL. I don't think that you're going to find anyone willing to talk you off of this ledge...

Hi I have just sold the first Omega Planet Ocean privately, transfer of funds tonight if this happens the others are going to one home (if I decide to go all the way).. Meteorite Speedmaster, Aqua terra Olympic SE, Constellation, and
Deville Chronoscope. I will be keeping the others if the deal happens.

I wouldnt do it. I am not just talking, I had the wg sub but eventually I sold it. It is very sensitive to scratches even if you wear it carefully it will look "used and battered" after short time. Additionaly, I got tired of the smurf blue very soon. On photos and in the shop (with strong spotlights) the blue bezel looks nice but under many lighting conditions it just looks cheap like plastic. It didnt look nice with many clothings because this blue is not a dark deep blue. Please dont accept the view of those people that never had that particular watch. It is very easy to say "go for it". I would rather go for the LV ceramic sub.

one of my top two favorites. i would in a heartbeat.

[TSW]

In one word YES!!!

I wouldn't make assumptions of who has had or has this watch. Like any gold watch with polished center links it is susceptible to scratches. So- for those who obsess over every little swirl mark a gold Rolex sports model isn't for you. I will say my gold sports watches look anything but battered. As for color and bezel - looks anything but cheap IMHO. The color is very cool and is a great change up from the LVC and the 16618 YG blue Sub. So again I will say go for it- but what do I know???

I would have to purchase a pre-owned DayDate II or Gold Daytona before I purchased the WG Sub. It is a great looking watch but for the money there are alot of options which could be purchased right and if you decided to change up and sell or trade could help with that move. Also, if you gave it just a few more years I believe the WG Sub could be had in the second hand market for significantly less than now, but that is just my opinion.

Hi Connor. You know more than me about Rolex for sure, but I agree totally the blue ceramic looks stunning and definately not Cheap. As for the polished centre links getting marked, This can be sorted by a refurb and polish back at Rolex when needed to bring it back to Stunning cant it?

That is the thing I have to decide on losing 4-5 Omegas to get One Rolex in White Gold. But my heart is saying go for it.

If it'll make you happy.....

Good luck!

Light swirl marks on PCL's not a big deal and yes a light polish will get rid of them quickly. For me- they do not bother me at all and I wouldn't let it bother you either!

The thing is how easy would it be to get those Omegas again?

Personally, even IF I had the money I wouldn't drop 15 or so large on a "new" Rolex...vintage is another story.

You can always buy later when funds allow and not sell your Omegas

I tried one a couple of months ago at my AD. It is heavy and my first impression that still holds was that I definitely seriously really really want it.

If I had 20-25k$ to spare I would get it myself immediately, but I would probably not sell stuff to get it.
