Damn rolex what are you doing? You betray your buyers in face.

Tell me you are joking.. But if you are not going to wear it anymore, I'll be happy to! Heck, I'll even pay for overnight shipping!

The WG GMT II is really a beautiful and iconic watch

I'll wear mine.

The resale value probably took a hit, but it's only money and I can always make more of that.

Exactly

My wife won’t wear her diamond engagement ring anymore because she heard of a woman wearing a cubic zirconium ring

Terrakot · 23 March 2018, 01:33 AM

I heard one lady asked her husband, the WG BLRO owner, for a divorce

lig · 23 March 2018, 01:41 AM

I’d wear it and look down on those losers with the Jubilee bracelet fashioned from that déclassé steel.

Mattewlaird · 23 March 2018, 01:42 AM

why so bitter when its not that bad. haha

Chadridv · 23 March 2018, 01:53 AM

I think the OP is being ridiculous, but I do also think this release, as well as the new blue dial WG BLRO were both a little bit of a slap in the face to original WG BLRO owners.

Jacobson · 23 March 2018, 01:56 AM

If I still had my WG BLRO I would wear it.

In fact if I come across one at a reasonable price, I may be tempted to reaquire

Timely thread; because I passed over on a SS Pepsi for a trusted sellers last WG blue dial. To me $20k for a SS watch is not for me; I’d rather have gold (plus if you’ve been paying attention PM pieces are now steadily increasing in value, since you’re concerned about he value)

Seddyspaghetti · 29 August 2020, 07:26 AM

Hell yes.

tally · 29 August 2020, 07:27 AM

youre right, dont wear it. your street cred will never recover

Harry-57 · 29 August 2020, 07:28 AM

Give it to me. I'll wear it for you and carry your shame.

madgpol · 29 August 2020, 07:30 AM

Don't see the problem. You know what you have. Is it that important you need others to know? Discretion is the name of the game

DJ39 · 29 August 2020, 09:46 AM

I have handled one at an AD

Also seen a couple in the wild, the gold looks completely different that SS

Bulldog21 · 29 August 2020, 10:15 AM

Waste of my time

AF_Rob · 29 August 2020, 10:24 AM

Must be nice to have these worries.

173rdabn · 29 August 2020, 10:25 AM

HUH?

Onikage · 29 August 2020, 10:34 AM

Yes. The angry WG Pepsi owner. I remember those.

Heck, I embarrass myself a the time. Why not look good doimg it?

subprimero · 29 August 2020, 11:33 AM

The point of WG is that it is unlikely that anyone other than the wearer will know what it is. Introducing the watch in SS only adds to this enjoyment.

wgdaytona · 29 August 2020, 11:36 AM

Hell yes, why not? Your money, your enjoyment. Yes, yes yes. For years I wore a WG Daytona. I was DUMB enough to trade it off and get a SS Daytona. Great watch, but, NOT as great as my past WG Daytona. I'll never make that mistake again. Just sayin... You should wear it and enjoy it.

Adri4n. · 29 August 2020, 11:55 AM

lol... ultimate first world problem, all of these "plebs" wearing the same watch. Not to worry, I hear a gold hulk is just around the corner!

Good find

Ordinarily a 2y.o. Thread is no longer relevant - but that quote must have been taken right to the drawing board by Rolex designers.
