Maybe change it to a strap?
Might be interesting to swap out the bracelet for a blue suede/rubber strap. The benefits of ceramic is the scratch resistance. Plus probably your 3rd or 4th watch.
I saw one at a boutique years ago.
The white ceramic does not do it for me. That blue perpetual dial sure looks good inside, no doubt there, but overall, I do not love it.
The white ceramic looks
quite shiny. Need to see it in the metal to understand how it would really look on the wrist.

Looks are completely subjective, I agree.
I had the same thought before, ‘it looks like a toy watch’ plus the polishing can’t really be seen, but when I saw it in person it really did impress. Best. Alex
That is true; pictures never tell the whole story.
In any case, this watch would be out of my reach :-(
