Firstly, thanks everyone for the massive feedback on this topic. I can see that generally a gold bracelet on a gold watch is very loud and a strap seems to be, for the most part very classy. But..... since I am a bracelet guy, and also want a classy look decided to go with the 18K Limited Edition Breitling BO1 in WHITE GOLD with the 18K white gold bracelet. This way I get to have my cake and eat it too!!!. Now here's the hard part. The list price for this one is $45,200 and I personally think that is very steep, especially since eventually these watches end up in the secondary market and one could never even hope to re-coup even 10% of the list price. I found an authorized dealer who can get it for me for $31,500 tax included, but still that is beyond my range. So.....here's my next question. Is it ever possible to get a Breitling for 50% off the list price????? Now that would put the watch in my hands easily.
Let's also look at the exciting points of an 18K white gold Breitling BO1 with an 18K white gold bracelet. For one it looks like a steel watch but when you put it on your wrist, a large grin spreads across your face as you realize the weight alone of such a solid piece of gold tells a far different story. Secondly, just imagine bumping into another fellow with the steel version and he says to you 'we have the same watch lol' and you go 'oh no we don't my friend'!!! And it's a limited edition. So it's not like everyone can get it.
So if anyone out there can tell me if it's possible to get this watch at 50% off the list I would be so happy. Thanks
Also, if anyone could tell me where to get the new porsche 911 turbo for 80% off, I'd be happy. I have a ford that could stand replacing.
