Raijor Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I really can not decide on a gold rep. I am looking for something that is a stand out looker. I am considering a Breitling Bently black dial and Omega Railmaster black dial. I would appreciate feedback on either watch. Thanks and Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronus Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 Solid 18k gold Franck Muller Casablanca... they'll set you back $1700+ though. EL had them and Silix had some too (if you ask nicely)... otherwise there may not be any available. Solid gold won't give you the intrinsic problems with plated reps. If you can afford it...

plaifender Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 whatabout a gold yachtmaster or datejust? The datejust always looks classy in gold in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fitmic Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 I love the ss Railmaster, so I'd go for the Railmaster. I am not too fond of gold watches, but the ss one is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highflyingclive Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Avoid yellow gold. It is trailer-park vulgar. Trashy. Go for rose gold. Rose gold has an undertstated, sophisticated elegance. Like this 147 from Joshua, for instance: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Another vote for the gold railmaster, it is just that little bit understated but classy Just got to precious time then omega and limited railmaster 18k be prepared to be impressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkerouac Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 Clive's Pam is a killer choice. Also, the rose gold Chopard Mille Miglia GMT is absolutely fantastic. Take a look at the two tone Navitimer or two tone Chronomat Evolution as well. Any of these choices will knock people's socks off.... without being pimpishly obnoxious.

archibald Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 The railmaster LE looks nice in the pics, and if you want a chrono, I can tell you from experience that the TT Navi gold color is very accurate side by w/ gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
