Congrats! You have amazing taste in watches.

The roter in 21k gold makes the "clogs" shiny too

Sorry to revive this thread before my reveal in July, but I was seeing some of the watch stacking threads on here and thought they looked pretty nifty, but I wasn't sure where to start. I thought maybe a hermes leather bracelet would go well with the watch, http://france.hermes.com/bijoux/bijo...d_jewellery=GM such as this one. Any opinions?

You don't say! I thought your watch arrived early! Have you had the chance to try this out? I've not seen these but it looks simple enough to be paired with your watch but might be a tad too understated to wear on its own.

+1 for the watch, you can get zcp in ostrich later..

well a purse is different, because it holds a wallet and other things.
in my purse, i put my 650 dollar phone, my keys to the car and house, and lots of designer small bags and items as well as expensive tech and gadgets....
at some points, my bag legitimately contains tens of thousands of dollars.....in merchandise.so i could never go for a cheap bag....

Unfortunately not :( since they don't have any similar watches in stalk, I like how understated the bracelet looks and how the gold clasp pairs with the rose gold hands and hour markers on the watch. Another reason is that I'm back in the countryside since schools out till the Fall (no stores near me whatsoever :P). But I'm really excited for July 24th, hopefully the watch will have arrived from Germany by then. I was estimated about 3 months so I hope it wont be four !!

I'm really excited for you on this.. :) Have you checked out the jewellery / Hermes forums?
