Can't seem to find many pictures of the masterpieces with, or without the diamond bracelet, so has anyone got any they can post? Thanks! They seem rare.

Who ever owns a watch like that has to have more watches at all different price points. but if it were my only watch, I would wear it till I die.

I was talking about the first picture of the Masterpiece much more so than yours.

As a contrarian, might I posit the idea that since the Masterpiece is so rarely shown, you should start a thread to showcase your model. That would be mighty nice, as a reference thread. And, it's always nice to see something a little different than various versions of the Submariner.

Got it. Though nice in theory I rather not start a thread on my 18946 or the masterpiece range in general for obvious reasons, with that said I have posted plenty of pictures around TRF during the previous months on it so a quick search will point folks to it. BTW your DD2 is simply breath taking ;-)

I tried one of these on at the AD just for fun. I've never been a huge blingy guy, but once that baby was on my wrist I fell in love. It's not for everyone - which makes me want to have it even more.

Think this is what you're asking about:

Not really an "ICED" fan



I'd much rather go with this matching pair and pocket the difference...


Have a great weekend TRFers...

I can almost see my reflection in that bracelet. This is such a beautiful piece!
