Are these exclusive? Sorry, someone had too

I can’t decide … which one do you like most?

I prefer the WG, not a fan of yellow gold but might make an exception for this one.

I’ll never have to make the decision, and I am not a YG fan but given the choice of the 2 I’d have the YG all day. Looks terrific.

Both are nice watches, but wished the YG had a slightly yellow tinge sub dials to give it a proper vintage JPS tribute look.

Incredible. Shame they’re $300k.

Shame on my wallet for not having the $300k ��

Not that these aren’t nice, but at the current market price for these I’d be RUNNING to a trusted seller to trade up for a 6263 in gold.
