That's a stunner! Much nicer than the stainless version.

I am getting to where RG appeals to me very, very much. How can it not? Anna insists that one day I must have a Rose Gold watch. I'll have to win the lotto first.

44 is not bad IMHO. Still within my comfort range.

Hmmm....my comfort range is max 40mm with an exception for the mighty Speedy on leather. 44mm is way too much for me
Nice watch though

To me, it all depends on the watch. A 45 Planet Ocean or a 45 U-Boat is way too much, but a 47 Panerai is just right. As is a 42 Explorer II or 40 Sub.

Stunning! Definitely one of the most beautiful gold chronos I have seen, and GMT function, too. Breguet makes some gorgeous watches, there is one AD here where I can look at them now and then. I was surprised at how comfortable the PO 45mm is, so there's a chance this 44mm might fit as well. Not that I will likely ever get a chance to find out, though. Cheers Carl
