Go back and see for ....
2 weeks and even put it on. See if it still appeals to you by the end of that period (regardless of the Pt about the same price as the gold which is very attractive though 
)
The version you are exploring is the 1860-2. Please check if the Cal is 1.96 (swan-neck regulator) because I saw in the older catalogue like 5 years ago, there is another version with dial very similar to 1860-2 but with Cal 3.96 .
Congrats to your Brother! Does he check out our Forum? I hope he does, and will be fantastic to see you (should your verdict is GO) and your brother post the Handsome Duo.
Please keep us inform of your decision whichever way it goes
Thanks, Kari.

Does L.U.C 1860 look old?
I like this watch very much, but others tell me it looks old. What should I do?
Get it!
In case something is pleasing your own eye, get it and forget what others say. If you start to base your style and your taste based on the tastes of others, you will never find yours. And by the way: L.U.C. 1860 is a watch with a lot of style and charisma...
1860
The AD I have been using for Chopards is still having one with Pt.. case and with two backs. Both the saphire and a Pt.. case back. The price is very very good - about the same as a golden one is normally costing. The AD ordered two with Pt. cases and my ...

Roxas, only you can decide if the watch it right for you.
Can you explain what the watch looking "old" means to you? Best. Jed
I mean ...
I'll look old if I wear this watch, at least it is what others say. I don't want to look old. Thanks.
That's a tough one.
It's a classic size and dial. The L.U.C Twist houses the same movement in a larger (41mm), more modern case and dial. Have you considered it? (Kong's pic) Best, Jed...
Choosing an L.U.C in the first place ...
already takes lot of confidence. It is not a brand you see a lot of people wearing it (or even knows it) , and those who wear them tend to be contrarians. I share the same thoughts as Kari, Jed and Daos. A Classic is evergreen, but may be boring. However,...
Having recently seen this watch up close...
...I think it is a timeless piece. Classic good looks don't equate with "looking old" IMO. I'm in my early 30s and I would happily wear the L.U.C. 1860 while patting myself on the back for my enduring aesthetic sensibilities. Follow your heart. Cheers, Da...
You never pat me on the back for my enduring aesthetic sensibilities!
Maybe it doesn't count for me because I'm in my forties?! Best, Jed
Not at all in my eyes. Am still hunting for one myself =) Life is too short...
...wear what you want and dont be bothered by what others say. LUC 1860 is one of the most beautiful watch around. Regards
Don't say so loud, Young Man...wait you've ...
