Casual white gold bracelet watch

 

I’ve had a desire to buy a white gold casual watch with a bracelet. I want it to wear daily. 


My collection consists of Lange Chronograph, Lange Saxonia, JLC ultra thin, AP Jumbo 15202, and VPC (new small brand).


After diving into the market I found that Rolex GMT Pepsi meteorite ref 126719blro is maybe the best choice. I don’t consider watches like the amazing PP Nautilus as they unfortunately are sold with heavy mark-ups.


Never had a Rolex, so my thoughts are a bit amateur on this subject. Here is what I think about Rolex GMT Pepsi meteorite.

Good

+ iconic

+ robust

+ cool dial and bezel (make you smile)

+ not too flashy

+ bracelet is adjustable 

Things to consider

- everyone has a Rolex and it is very recognisable

- after owning Lange/AP/JLC that are made with great attention to movement and case finishing Rolex may be a downgrade as it feels like a tool than a meticulously crafted watch

- bracelet is just OK, it could be more comfortable

- really heavy (didn’t have experience with heavy watches)


Could you share your experience and thoughts? Maybe I shall ditch the idea of owning a white gold bracelet watch (no matter what brand) and get smth else? I made a list of the watches I own and the watches I find attractive. All in one picture to have a better look.


Hope all of you have a great weekend😀
