New Rose Gold Yachtmaster Oysterflex

So - walking through Zurich Airport on Sunday - tried on the new Rose Gold Yachtmaster at the Rolex Boutique........ well, sublime, with Swiss tax taken off a shade over £15k - should I have gone for it?

fu** me, too much cash, love it on pictures though.

I'd rather not try it on, too scared of doing someting I might regret... Then again, I'm really tempted to just see what it looks like on my wrist, nothing wrong with that, right? I would not take my bank card with me, just in case I momentarily lose the plot. Nah come on, I can't see myself paying that much. If I was loaded, maybe...

New Rose Gold Yachtmaster Oysterflex

No you did the right thing by leaving it there. I cannot stand rubber bracelets. They are awful. Just my personal option I know a lot love them. A Rolex should come on a proper metal bracelet always.

£15k but I take it you were planning on paying the £3k (20%) VAT on your return to the UK
