Chopard Classic or J12?

J12 - more trendy, sporty, durable, hardy, sturdy, recognizable style. The Chopard is too simple and such style is dime a dozen. You are only 27 so J12 fits you better!
 
I find nothing ordinary whatsoever about the Happy Sport series (how can floating diamonds ever be ordinary haha? :p)... I absolutely adore mine to pieces. :love: The J12 is a little too sporty for my style (although I like it better with diamond markers). Two different looks. :smile1: My vote goes to the Chopard!
 
I have both and love both - Chopard (Happy Sport oval w/ 7 diamonds) and 33mm black J12. IMO, J12 is really fun to wear because of its sporty look. Chopard is totally a classic to own for a life time.
You are only 27 and I think you should get the J12.
I got my J12 first and Chopard later (I am 32 now).
Good luck on your decision!
 
Thank you for all of your advice, ladies, I gave it grave and serious thought while I was in Paris-- I even rang my jewellers at home and asked if they had the Chopard, but they said it had been discontinued here!

I had a little chat with my mum about what I should do, and she told me that I might have a j12 in my future for my birthday/Christmas (which fall within a few weeks of each other) and once I heard that...

Decision made! Then I'll have a fun/trendy/daily watch and a lifetime classic, and now I can stop watching watches! (Lately I find my eye drawn to that corner of the window of every jewellers I pass...) And now for a few action photos:

Thanks again for all your advice, it helped a lot in my decision: when in torn between two good things, get both! :tpfrox:
