Thank your Happyish for your kind advice.

Yes, I should have worn something dark to make a WG piece stand out. My favorite color is Navy and this brown blouse is actually not really me! (I am not a neutral lover, including H bags.)

But, my point is the impact of the diamonds. I have always thought this piece was too sparkly for me to wear IRL, but its impact was, in a way, less than that of Magic 6-motif pave, which my SA also admitted.

VA WG long necklace in onyx/pave is very nice, but I have 20-motif onyx in WG...

I also tried the WG/Pave, but I too had mixed feelings. It didn't have the impact I expected. I tried the VA WG onyx/pave, but couldn't figure out how to wear it. It was neither her nor there-- serious but not dressy. For far less, I ended up with the 20-motif onyx in WG and the 20-motif WMOP in WG. I like wearing the two together. The combination is dramatic and wonderful with a black and white outfit--or anything with black or white and doesn't require any thought before wearing. Have you thought about a 20-motif WMOP w WG?

Thank you Happyish :heart:
I wanted to try on 20 WG MoP, but all the pieces were on hold, so I had to consider VA WG diamonds 20!!!:lol:
I have onyx 20 in WG, too. Your pic assures me that I need WG 20 MoP!!!

Love your watch! I feel in love with one of the VCA watches recently. The workmanship is breathtaking and it goes better with jewellery than say Rolex.

Tank you:heart:
In my early VCA years, I had no interest in their watches.
I used to wear multiple bracelets without a ⌚.
Recently my focus is Poetic Complications and Extraordinary Dials!!!
I go out without necklaces/bracelets but never without my VCA⌚;)

Thank you DS2006:heart:

I was just lucky. One day my SA asked me if I was interested in onyx 20 in WG. I said no because I had onyx 20 in YG. After that I was shown someone's ordered onyx 20 in WG that had just arrived. It was strikingly cool!!!:tup: I placed my order right away. Is it still the NY boutique's limited edition???
