A tasteful dress chronograph in YG is the bomb.

My collection... Yes I like gold.

P.s. one gold watch is on its way to a forum member, but I have another golden replacement incoming.

Crassus said the same.

It is true that things can get lost in translation. Not this though...

I thought my "That is just sick. I hate you. (no smiley...)" before your post was just too much to be considered anything but sarcasm. Coupled with the next following posts I did - I was trying to be funny. No success...

I also missed the like you left on my post, all makes sense now.😬

Ed must have missed the thread where Geno got his by-line 😜

I miss a lot it seems, specially today!🙄

That Omega is awesome! I don't think I've seen a gold watch with a brushed finish before. It almost looks brass.

Say what?

I think it is personal taste....also I think for omega Rolex other major brands
Gold watches have a high price of entry...do not hold value initially

Shush about gold you people. Those of us raking it up while others gut their bank accounts on steel sport watches appreciate that it is overlooked and underpriced, and would not care for any more attention to be directed this way.

@dsio that Seamaster Deluxe Stepped arrowhead dial with the date on the six... Care to trade it for my mother-in-law?

Before you say no... Yes, she doesn't have a very pleasant character, but the woman can cook!

Unless her stage name is Natalie Portman I'm going to have to respectfully decline 😀

This is by far my favourite golden watch these days. The solid gold dial with sunburst effect and the golden faceted trim makes the goldie feel complete.

Looks differently in every light.

gold is jewelry, stainless steel is manly.

I think at least one gold watch is good to have in a collection. Granted this one never gets worn; it does not work with shorts and a t-shirt. Some day I will need to dress up so I can wear this one.
