    Hi all, about to buy PO chrono in titanium for my first luxury watch today. Just interested in thoughts on if I should be looking at other models for that price range?
    Cheers
    Saw it retails $12525 AUD in Sydney, any tips on purchase price I should aim for would great.

    It'll be hard to get a lot off on that, in Australia there are not many titanium PO's and POCs being delivered to dealers, even boutiques are not getting many and they're selling. If its the watch you want then go for it, just make sure you're settled on titanium over steel and the chrono over time only etc :)

    Thanks dsio, picked it up today. Sexy looking watch, titanium a bit more comfy for my work was factor and chrono looked great. Blew my budget but first luxury had to be a bit special

    Mate the worse thing you can do is buy a watch you don't want as much to save some money, that's when the buyer's remorse sets in, sounds like you got the one you wanted and I'm sure its worth blowing the budget for that :)

    BTW post some pics!

    Wearing titanium watch has pleasant surprising effect, you expect such big watch is heavy to wear, but in reality is very light.

    30th birthday not too far away, 3 weeks. Will be worth the wait. Trying to pick watch for my wife, is the smaller diameter PO a good idea or something else? Would appreciate feedback. Want to spend about $5000 AUD so about 3000euro

    I'd lean more towards the Aqua Terra for a lady

    A quartz reverso might go over well too, we've got a few members who are into those
