Just wondering I know these are limited edition

I am tempted to buy for collection. Every time I see them I get tempted

Is it worth investing? Not for monetary gain at least for now, more to are they worth collecting?

Surely it will be unlike collecting the grail 6159-7010

Thanks in advance

Hold your horses folks!!! Was @ K2 earlier, and our brudder GOH there mentioned that he had placed order for the ROSE GOLD "Rocher" CHOCOLATE J1, and it's coming in nxt week! No mention of the quantity ordered.

So, hoist your pistol first... wait for the stocks to come in... shoot next week!
Is there a matching bracelet for the Rose Gold? Tio poisoned for this as well.

Unfortunately, there's no optional PVD bracelet available for this model. However, this rose gold/brown shroud combo, will have good strap combination if you opt for optional leather straps.
K2 is the best place for such convenience.

Thanks for the advice. Will probably pay K2 a visit and see how it goes. Saw the watch, didn't like the rubber strap and was hoping to have a metal bracelet on it.

Think it's fated for me to drop off my watch at K2 to see how much it'll cost to fix it.

The only bracelet that looks good with all the 3 L.E Divers are those PVD ones that matches the lug well.
The one with black and gold combo might have a little advantage. Depending on whether your allows, get a all "gold" diver from either Mustafa, or Hannifa Textiles, remove off the bracelet and pair with this L.E... the whole combo should look satki.

Or else...
you're left with leather strap option liao lor...

Just wanna check with u owners of red sardine, usually thong sia sets will have alternate roman day n the PI sets will have arab/spanish day. Do the PI sets now still no roman day option?
