It was originally a dual, between three, a bit of a long story.
1. Tag Heuer Grey Phantom - Fell apart as I never have a special order fufilled and I have to order this one, I've ordered 6 Omegas via special orders (at different times in my collecting at different AD) and none ever came in, usually they give it to number two on the list and it appears like I'm not even there

plus I have to constantley check up on the AD
2. Rolex Submariner in steel
3. Cartier Diver Blue in Steel
But here is where we run into problems....I came into the AD and it went from a stainless piece to a two tone when I saw the TT Cartier, love at first glance but I waited...to answer your original question, yes I love unique and unusual combinations if they're done right and blue and gold is a must in the collection if done right.
Back to the purchase, I ran down the street to my Rolex AD, I was determined not to like the Cartier so trying out the Sub is a must, low and behold they only had the Sub. Blue TT in stock, I tried it and liked it, but not as much as the Cartier and there I ended up walking out with it as my purchase at my Cartier AD.
One of the main issues was I love my Daytona and since I had picked mine up last year I felt like I might go into Sub. Overload, I guess one part of me was hoping my dealer would call in with my birth year Daytona as well, or that I would win that weeks lotto and come back for an all gold Rolex. All in all the Cartier really stunned me and it ended up in the collection, I usually rank my watches like dating people in terms of wrist time. Although my Daytona is like my mistress (no real mistress in real life, just commited to one special lady but for my watches it is something easy to rate) it always draws me to it against my reguler pieces and it demands my attention, my Grand Seiko is the reliable one, while This Cartier is True Love, I've only ever experienced this with one other watch and it isn't comparable.
