What a killer watch. Yeah...I'm kind of torn between that dial and the champagne myself.

Huge congrats!

Very elegant and well thought choice. Gold does not work for everyone, but to you it seems to be excellent.

10/10 and the silver dal with the Romans theme is brilliant.

Enjoy wearing it.

I also wanted the champagne dial but ended up with exactly what u have. After visiting my AD I ended up loving the silver dial because it has multiple personalities. It's silver one minute. Then almost white the other. Then light champagne the next.....and so on! Congrats!
