My first "goldie"

Just got this 16628 in today and it appears to be brand new unworn with zero bracelet stretch - absolutely flawless and feels like a tank on the wrist:





I never like two-tone watches; here it is next to my others:



I think they'll all be gold from here on out.

Excellent line up! I agree with you...once you go PM it's very difficult to go back to the SS pieces. And platinum...well that's a whole other story!

A little too gold for me, but taste varies over time. Enjoy it!
