1000th post advice.

[Vivalas]

Just realised I’m on 999 posts, so think my 1000th should be a milestone post.

Firstly thank you to everyone for the great forum - the spirit here is great and very welcoming.

Secondly I’m 18 months away from my 50th birthday - that’s still quite a long time to go. I want something special. I’ve never had a gold/precious metal watch of any kind as I’ve always been a SS professional type of person. I currently have a white dial Daytona, new Pepsi, coke, deep sea blue, white sky dweller, sd43 and a sub, oh and a seamaster.

For my 50th I’d like something different to steel. My favourite watch is probably the platinum Daytona but without selling some of my other watches it’s out of my price range. Up to maybe 30k, possibly a bit more for the right watch. I prefer lighter dials in the main but not totally set on that. I’d prefer Rolex but happy to consider alternatives. Leaning towards bracelet but would consider leather if not Rolex.

I realise it’s quite vague, but I’ve got 18 months to make the right decision. Greatful for suggestions and pictures.

Thanks all
