Recently I have been looking at adding a piece to the collection with diamonds.

My simple and admittedly biased and arguably sexist rule is: if male, no. If female, yes/OK.

I love diamonds on the hour markers. Not necessarily a fan of diamonds on the bezel…

Spoke to my PP AD about who purchases these diamond pieces. According to her, every one was a male. Not for their wives or significant others, but for them.
What does it matter what others think, if you like it, go for it. You do you. Plenty of other dudes buy watches with diamonds, so you won't be alone. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk |

I think the blue dial on the 5961P is amazing to look at it. Go for it!

When you reach this level of ‘watchism’ you can do as you please.
I think it looks amazing.

What's not to like about diamonds or other gem stones?! If you like how this particular model looks with rocks, go for it!

Just awful.
Get a 5170P if you are looking for class with diamonds. |

On that PP, sure thing. It is about the watch and how the diamonds work with it.

Depending on your collection, sure. It would be an interesting additive but definitely not a primary piece. Might be a good collectible.

Sure, why not?
On another note; that strap on the VC in the background looks awesome
