Advice on first gold watch - a chopard maybe?
Hi All!
I've been collecting watches for a few years now, and I'm looking to pick up my 1st gold watch after accumulating largely SS sports watches. I've narrowed imy choices down to these 3 beauties:
1. Chopard LUC Mark III RG "Sunburst" (ref 1905)
2. Breguet WG or YG classique w/ white enamel dial
3. Glashutte Original Meissen in RG
Just wondering If i could seek some views from you more experienced and wise collectors out there? Have any of you owned any of these pieces? I'm currently leaning towards the Chopard as I like the relatively large size for a dress watch (39.5 mm), and the nice mix of classic and modern lines (Kerensky posted a pic of it in another thread). I also think it's pretty good value for money. Another good value for money gold watch I was considering some time back was the Moser Mayu (RG/black dial), but I ultimately felt it was a bit on the small side.
However, the Chopard brand is quite new to me, and I've traditionally associated it with women's jewellery!
In the end, I might still stick to SS and go for the white-dialed IWC Port 5001 7-days. Been eyeing it for ages 
Any advice would be very sincerely appreciated!
Thanks a lot, and sorry for the trouble!
