Horological Meandering

However, I have also given thought to platinum/salmon/black - almost a 5270P colorway - or just a platinum/salmon.
Still vacillating on a lot of details, but hey, I've got some time to figure such details out!

Is the watch something you want to be able to wear daily? Not that you would, more that it’s possible. And if so, does one metal work better than the other in terms of leaving you this flexibility. I know for me the answer remains a white metal, but everyone’s day and use case is different. Good luck with the journey, keep us updated if you can as it’s always interesting to see how people go about this, how decisions are made and of course how the interaction with the watchmaker is.

And if past precedent is any indication, I do not imagine that I will wear it daily. While I am reticent to call it a special occasion watch, because it will get daily wear, day-in-day out, I often turn to my sports watches (I am a father of a young child, and soon multiple young children). Further, I do like the stealth associated with platinum. That said, if I go gold, it would be my first gold watch that is not WG.

And what a nice list. Grand Seiko and Zenith are two that I often think about adding to my watch box!
