I can't really make up my mind, if I should keep it or not.

I have bought a preowned Cartier Panthere watch in ss and 18 k gold. It is a mens watch, ca 30 mm.

I didn't want a too feminine watch, thats why I wanted a bigger size.
I'm 5,7" so I generally can wear big jewlery and watches.

But now I'm starting to think - is this watch too retro, is there too much yellow gold.

I can't make up my mind. Please help me. I know that in the end this is my decition, but I value your opinions.

I honestly think it is gorgeous and would definitely wear it myself!

BUT if there's something you would love more, then you should get that instead! Since it's preowned anyway, can you wear it for a little bit and see if it grows on you?
 
It is a gorgeous watch..... I love a two-tone watch--they are so versatile. Also, 31mm square case is not a huge look, so you should be able to wear for a long time. The design, though a bit different is still classic. However, if there is another one singing out to you.......
 
Thank you all for your opinions. I have thought long and hard, and I have decided to keep it. There isn't any other watch that I really want at the moment.
I think I will start a watch collection in time
If I cut back on handbags I will be able to get more watches :)
 
I Love the Panthere! I don't think they make them anymore and I believe that it is very sought after! I love the two-tone also, so classic! The size looks great on you, I think you made the right choice to keep it!
 
If you don't love it, return it and get something that you love! It's a pretty watch, but if it's just going to be collecting dust, it'd be best to put the money toward something you are thrilled about.
