Hunt for Red Gold by October...

I am yearning for an RG watch on a strap. Can't afford a DJ or high end piece. Saw a B&M Clifton 10059 but it has a Sellita (ETA clone) movement. At that price point (I figure ~5k w/ disc) I realize it won't be in house but I'd rather not sell anything to fund this.

Any comments on those movements? Any suggestions?

Thx

Nice thread title and one of my favorite movies.

As for a recommendation, perhaps vintage will give you more in-house options at a lower price point? If you're looking new I wouldn't be hasty and save until you get into the $10k+ range.

I am also in the market for a rose gold watch on strap. Can you buy used or so you need new? There are a number out there. Zenith Blancpain ect that get you there price wise.

Yeah, I could go used, even if a service is needed I'd probably save $ over new since typically gold doesn't hold its value as well as SS and someone else will have eaten the depreciation. It will be a hunt indeed, and I need to save up some more $$.
