    Hypothetically speaking

    If you had a TT GMT2 (116713) languishing in the safe that was only brought out on very special occasions, would you:

    A. Keep it and enjoy it on those occasions when something a bit more "gold" was appropriate?
    B. Chop it in and go back to an LV, or something similar and enjoy wearing that without worrying about how easily the gold was marked?

    If you aren't wearing it , chop it in and get something you will wear more often.

    B, unless the watch had sentimental meaning to me.

    Or just wear it and stop worrying about the gold being marked. Great watch btw.

    Keep it, remove the bracelet and wear it on an Everest leather or rubber strap.

    Apologies, but what is an 'LV'? I assume ''TT' is bi-metal? All these acronyms.

    The LV (Lunette Vert) is the green Sub.

    I have a tt gmt I've never worn in the safe, I wear most of my others in random rotation depending how I feel, just can't bring myself to wear it or sell it, so I am no good for advice really.

    Just wear it. Or if you don't wear it - sell it and get something you will.
