Hard Choices.... and wait
I am in a big dilemma at the moment, I am a big fan of the 5980/1R. However, right now I have only a 55K budget that I can spare, which would get me a 5711/1R but I dont really like 5711 because its too thin for my liking. But with my current budget I can afford two watches that I like, the daydate 40 and RO 15450OR just dont adore them like I do the 5980/1R. Should I wait and save up to buy the 5980/1R which would take me a few months or just go with the other 2 watches that I like instead? I would love to hear some opinions. I currently only have a gold daytona(is variety/quantity really important?) FYI- I am only 21 and go to college(I earn from joint business with my mom) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
