Noriko...I initially wanted the j12 in white after I fell IN LOVE with the original white watch by Harry Winston (who could afford?). However, I wasn't taken with it IRL because of the ceramic and ended up with a white cartier instead. However, I have since seen the Dior Cristale and that's nice too. Looking back, the J12 is actually nice and I'm sure I would have got used to the ceramic band. Good luck with your decision!!

That was another one I was considering! but it didn't look as good as the J12 on me The sapphire crystal on the band is beautiful though!

btw thanks for the thread link!!! I'll definitely read that before I make my purchase

good luck and let us know! i want one also but i'm willing to wait, still paying off the cartier

 

[Noriko]

^^^do you have pics of the Cartier? I was considering some of their watches also. I am soooo unsure of which watch to buy

noriko, I have a J12, a regular one without diamonds/stones. I IT!!!! The ceramic is actually what I love about it, it's durable, anti-scratches, AND it's unique! I have it in white coz I think the white one is cuter. And the black one shows fingerprints. It is also quite easy to match with my wardrobe!

Anyways, j12 is like my favorite watch!!!

i don't have pics, unfortunately as i tried once and it didn't come out too well. it's the louis tank cartier in yellow gold and brown croc strap.

have you seen the roadster watches? i mean, i saw the women's and men's version today and it nearly made me forget about the J12 they are beautiful. i love cartier

 

[Noriko]

hehe yeah I checked out the Cartier watches today. Still kind of stuck on the J12. I also saw this white Harry Winston that was beautiful as well, but the J12 is still my first choice. I just want to be absolutely sure before I get something. This will probably be my last watch before I get the pearlmaster, which will most likely be around graduation time next year

just curious Noriko....are you looking at the one w/diamonds or w/out?

 

[Noriko]

^^^either the plain or the one with the diamonds in the face.

i prefer the new one , it is more timeless & less flashy to my eyes.


the strap one is cool as well

 

[Noriko]

That new black one you posted is nice How much does it go for? Is it the same as the white? I dont remember the white having that extra thing @ the bottom though. Does that face come in the white style as well?

 

[taz]

if you'll gona have the white one get this:

,
& i prefer the other versions with steel :

they look more special & standing out of the croud.

 

[Noriko]

Wow that green one is cool, what is the retail? Are those available in boutiques or are they special order. I didn't see them at the two boutiques here!

 

[taz]

sorry, i have no idea about the price, but those are new & limited releases.

in contrast to the white/green watch , there is a black watch release with red rubbies.

 

[Noriko]

I wonder if they'll have any @ the grand opening of the new Chanel Fine Jewelry boutique at Ala Moana. I'm thinking of holding off on any purchase until that opens. Just in case they bring in some new items for the event.

 

[pigleto972001]

that sounds like a good idea! they may have event only pieces...i have seen the white one with sapphires around the bezel and it is special. i think one of the ones above is the taurillon (sp?) and there are only 12 made in the world and i saw it in French Vogue for 120000 euros, i kid you not! the black one with the special features on the dial (not the chronograph)
