No yellow gold in my house. I like to fly under the radar and enjoy that only WIS know what I’m really wearing.

I can't comment on the Smurf itself, but I love the heft and feel of WG.

I’m a big white gold fan and I’m seriously considering a white gold DD for my 50th. Platinum would be fine as well. ;)
I like that it can pass under the radar as steel to the casual observer.
I can see how others would say that’s why they don’t like white gold.

It does look and feel different.
Actually no better material for a watch meant to be in the Marine environment.
Not partial to WG, any gold will do for me.

This one? The “Bobby Flay” DD36 in WG went to a good home a while back.

Still have my WG 16519 Daytona to represent my WG itch. 👍
