Ohhhh~~UPDATE!!! Got an email reply from Watches of Switzland (Syd), the J12 is still $5800 (negotiable:nuts:). I'm still waiting to hear back from the melb store, if they don't have any, I might just buy a return ticket to SYD to get the watch~~~~:graucho::heart:!!!

Retail $10600, IMO the extra for the diamond bezel is worth it. I'll post another picture of it later with the sun on it, its RADIANT, unfortunately its overcast now. I'm sure whatever you decide will be lovely. I just got a friend the one with diamond markers and they love it but are always saying someday they'll buy the diamond bezel.

There is a pretty big diff between 33 and 38. I like the 38 because it looks better on me, plus its an automatic, I HAVE to have the sweeping hand. I guess its a side effect of growing up with Rolex. My SA said that even girls with really small wrists like the 38 and sometimes even try the 41 :rofl: Do whatever feels best on! But I think the 38 has so much more, but isn't overpowering on a woman like the 41.

^yes! Definitely get the bezel someday. I have heard that it may be possible to change the bezel. I haven't confirmed this yet, but I think it would be stunning with diamond bezel and diamond markers just like the LE ones. I'm working on the diamond bracelet now :rofl:

So, you've decided to get the J12? Great decision! I am happy that you found one at Watches of Switzland, I didn't know they carry Chanel watches too..:tup:

Hehe~not yet (hate myself being so indecisive:sweatdrop:). I didn't know they carry Chanel either, I just thought that I could give a try;). But unfortunately they don't have any J12 in store atm, would order one for me if i want. I'll probably go to the Chanel boutique and try on the J12 first, if I like it then I'll go to the Watches of switzland melb store and order one there..(pretty sure I can negotiate the price a little bit:graucho::heart:)...I have a strict budge of $5500 that I need to stick to....:push:

I like the Roadster, so I'd get it first! :yes: But if you already have a classic watch then you get the J12 which is also very pretty, especially the one with the diamond bezel, like Berlyn's. :drool:

The only thing stopping me from getting one (other than my husband that is :rolleyes: is I'm not sure I'd still be wearing it 5, 10 years down the road. It sure is pretty, but I don't know if it's a classic, kwim?

Good luck with your decision! It is best to try both on to see which one you really love :love:

I don't have any classic watch, the only watch that I have now is a Swatch that I got from BF last year:p, its very cute, but I need a upgrade:heart:.

I just bought the Roadster about 2 months ago. I had a Tag previously that I haven't worn in years! I hesitated alittle cuz I thought it might be too big, I have very small wrists. But I love it!! Good luck!
