I'm up for adoption. Fantastic collection!

Awesome collection. You should just use those beauties as ornaments on the tree and REALLY spread good cheer.

Mike,

Great Collection!!!! i really love it!! so i am deciding now between 2 watches, and i know it really is all about which one i like more , but i like both and eventually will have both but just wanted to get your opinion on something.....between the Day Date II in Yellow Gold with the white Cocentric Dial and the WG Blue Sub ( No Diamonds) which one do you think is "Louder" ........ i am 27 years old and have been really blessed in a lot of ways but i TRY and not wear stuff especially when with my age friends that SCREAMS too much. really what I'm getting down to is , do you think people know that the WG sub is solid Gold and i am being stupid by not just getting the Yellow Gold watch i want now bc i think by getting the WG sub it is keeping my collection a little more understated?? i hope this makes sense........ trying to word all this without sounding like a JERK!!

I had similar questions. Most of my precious metal in my collection is WG or platinum. Most people think it's ss. To me a yellow gold watch on a bracelet is pretty loud but just my opinion....
