I tried on the last one of these in the UK in Watches of Switzerland. Came on a stainless steel metal bracelet though. Super feminine and didn't like the colour at all. Not for me...
It was reserved but they offered it to me if i bought it on the day.
Yeah the OG is better IMHO. Funny that the snow texture is less pronounced on the gold one, not sure why they did that.
Have we all seen the new light blue textured SD model?
