Hi folks. I'm hoping this post will attract some feedback from the watch lovers on this forum.
My dilemma: I was just given a Rotary Les Originales Automatic watch in PVD rose gold with a brown leather strap, as a birthday gift. It is this one here. It's one of a limited series of 500, and its RRP is £395 although I understand that it was purchased at a sale price of £230. It is a very attractive and well built watch, with sapphire glass and skeleton back, showing the automatic winder rotor. It also came with a black ash display case that has a built-in watch winding mechanism.
The problem is, although I admire its construction, I don't really love the watch. I'm not really a fan of dials with roman numerals. However if I returned it for something else, there's no way I could replace it at £230 with another watch with such good construction.
I had recently seen a Rotary Avenger in gold (here) that was attractive at about £180, as well as a more expensive Tissot Visodate (here) that was also very attractive, at £430.
Should I return it for something that would almost certainly be a much lesser watch, spend more money on something like the Tissot, or keep it?
Thanks for your thoughts.
