I like the first one. While I love big chunky watches (and have several), there is something so chic and feminine about the gold and alligator. Loveit.
 
Etk123 and lulilu, u made a good point there. The gold and the alligator looks luxe.
If I switch out the bracelet to alligator, I wonder would it be the same feel ?
Thank u for all the comments. Keep them coming.
 
Although I prefer to wear a bracelet style myself, I very much prefer the look of the smaller face. The larger one takes up your entire wrist, making the bracelet all but invisible anyway, IMO. I also far prefer the rose gold, regardless of bracelet/strap.
 
Hautemama, thanks for pointing that out. Didn't even think about that until u mention it. Hehe. The rosé gold is alot more than the one with bracelet.
Do u all think it is worth it to pay for the gold?
N read somewhere that the rg of cartier will fade overtime. Hope it doesn't happen to their watches. Can anyone chime in?
 
Better double check with the boutique whether its okay to change the two tone bracelet to leather strap later on. I used to have the mid-size two tone version and was told by the boutique that they cannot change the bracelet to leather strap, only with gold model and large SS version.

I love the gold with the leather strap!
 
33mm, rose gold with strap, looks so unique. Depending on where you live, high humidity, it's easier to deal with bracelet. Pow wow factor is definitely with the rose gold. Two tone on BB looks odd, Cartier doesn't make good looking two tones....only my opinion.
 
I m going to get this watch from the authorised Dealer since they can give abit of discount. 10% for the two tone n 15% on the rosé gold. Considering the discount given, I will save more money on the rosé gold.
Actually I did ask the person whether the bracelet can switch to leather strap n his answer is by right can change. Hmm...
Do u all know what r the color straps available for the bb?
 
I prefer the rose gold on you for three reasons:

  1. The 33mm size is more proportional to your wrist
  2. The two tone BB looks odd (not a fan of Cartier TT). I prefer either all SS (I have this one) or all gold (I didn't let myself get this one:roflmfao:)
  3. I love the look of the purple strap, but depending on where you live, could get uncomfortable in warmer weather
Dream scenario would be to buy the all RG version and have additional leather straps to change up the look :graucho: It is cheaper to buy the metal bracelet first and buy additional leather straps than to do it the other way round.


Good luck with your decision!
 
I also dont like Catier two tone. I vote for the bracelet and I would get an all steel one! I know I'm not really helping you.. Just my honest opinion..
