Beautiful watch! I quite like the rose gold version as well (I know you're a white metal person but did you try it?)!

Not only tried it Carl but owned it the year it came out! For me the WG is tops though--more elegant and understated!!

PP all the way

I also don't but anything from the Richemont Group (unless it's shares) so VC is an absolute no

Lovely model. Is it me or is there an imperfection on the lume in the minute hand? Perhaps it's only something on the glass.

I don't in any way question that judgement. I respect that you will have good reason for it.
I am very interested to know why you wouldn't buy any watch from that group as it includes a lot of watches.

I know where you come from Ken! Although you know my preference I must say the white gold one looks very nice indeed!
