Rolex Daytona White Gold

Hi Guys. I’ve been eyeing this piece for awhile now. However I’ve been told that wearing a white gold watch, or any precious metal watch requires special attention.
Can you guys provide some comments such as:
1. What are the cons of owning a gold watch? I read they can’t be repolished and that it dents easily
2. The oyster flex on this watch doesn’t fit most hands and it can’t be readjusted ?
Any other comments on this piece is greatly appreciated as I’m itchcjnf to find out more before I pull the trigger. Many thanks guys
