To buy or not to buy , that is the question

If you had the chance to buy this would you ?

No. But more relevantly, would you?

Can you afford it? If so, do you love it? If so, are you sure you’re not giving up the opportunity to have a reference you love more if you buy it? If all are yes, go for it!

I was offered this watch by my AD but it really does nothing for me. Seems to really be popular but it is just not my cup of tea.

I wouldn’t wear a yellow gold watch BUT I do think it’s good looking. I don’t flip so I would pass.

I sure would. That shade of green paired with yellow gold looks amazing and the little hints of red really push it over the top. Gorgeous watch.

At an AD? Absolutely.

Not at the current grey price which has been run up recently on discontinue speculation. Of course, if it does get disco’d, these prices will look good. Lol

I saw a SA wearing it at an AD in NJ. It was spectacular to say the least. My second favorite all gold piece after the blue all gold SubC.

No, but only because I wouldn't wear it enough at this point in my retirement. If I was still in the corporate world in a heart beat.
