Suggestions for a Gold "Fuck You" Chrono

Recommended Posts

wrenches&watches
I have never owned a gold watch. Not really my style but more and more I am tempted to get one. I know I won't wear it often which is ok but I would like it to be a real statement watch like "LOOK AT ME." :lol:

 

I am thinking a yellow gold chronograph with all or mostly white face (also would consider black, blue or panda). I would like it to be a high grade - super rep status, preferably not a cheapie and on a bracelet. Currently I'm thinking either white Daytona, RO or ROO but the ROO and Daytona have their issues and the RO chrono is not the nicest quality rep so that is why I am looking for suggestions.

I hate accidents, Hublot with a7750's have taught me many lessons but still I keep drudging on. I just use the temptation to push the chronos or adjust the date wheel as a control mechanism for my impulses.

I would go for the RO Rose Gold with the Blue dial :fme:

 

*TBH, only seen RO not ROC with the rose gold blue dial, so not 100% sure if its repped

I've been thinking about this and I have the answer to the ultimate FU chrono:

Because this says "I don't give a rat's arse what you think, I'll wear what I like" and nothing says fuck you better than that!

You're confusing waaaay too much classiness with the thread's pursuit of crass flamboyance

This ^

 

I think I am going to go back to what I know. Old faithful SS and Titanium. If only they made a proper FF Bathyscaphe rep :(

By the way... The real FU is the yellow gold. Rose gold is more kind of delicate...

Now I know my suggestion does not belong to the FU category but a more subtle choice, should you ever decide to go understated.

 

IWC Portuguese Chrono 3714

For non-chrono options:

PP Nautilus - a gen strap would scream FU too.
