No, don't mix - I dislike this- very QVC.

I agree. That is why I am leaning towards YG so that I don't have to worry about mixing the RG and YG.

Wow, if the platinum Daytona might be in the running, then I change my vote!
My apologies to you, your husband and your financial planner

The 30th is still 3+ years away (so scary ). Definitely won't get a plat. until then (if then).

I'm sure that you will make a fine choice. Having seen a few of your posts, it's obvious that you have a good head on your shoulders. A ful gold Rolex is a smart investment on many levels. Best of luck in your search.

YG Daytona panda would be my choice. Maybe also consider it on a white strap.

Gold is stainless, but it doesn´t work the other way around...

I agree that it might be worth waiting to see what will come out from Baselworld, but again U will need to wait until late summer to see any of those pieces stateside.

You can solve the jewelry problem with new jewelry. My wife likes the T&CO rose gold bangles as an accent.

The only issue is that I am not a huge fan of mixing RG w/YG. When I wear my RG love bracelet, I will only wear SS or white j12.

I think that RG is lovely, but I love the "masculinity" and presence of the YG. I tried on the YG w/white dial today and am 90% sure I am going to go with that combo.

definitely go with a YG Daytona and add a little femininity with a mother of pearl dial!

Can't argue with that I have a YG GMT. Looking forward to the pics of whatever you go with.
