Steel vs gold?
Have the 15400st which is among my most casual watches (can't really call it a beater) but also dresses up ok with a suit. There are a few 15400or blue dials at various trusted sellers and have thought about trading in/up. I have a big wrist and like the second hand, so 15202 doesn't work for me. Am wondering about steel vs gold and particularly if the gold bracelet is too blingy.

As I look at the market, I see examples ranging from 10-16 years old. My question is how much difference a few years will make? Is 6 years newer worth another $6K if they are the same model number? Am I not thinking about some sort of high service costs that would be right around the corner? Also, I can't help but notice that I could get a brand new WG 40mm DD in the same price range from Takuya, and it makes me
