    What am I missing?

    I'm smitten, I admit it... I think it's very pretty indeed.

    However, heart and head don't always agree, so what am I missing?
    Budget brand, yes. OK but not great movement.

    But Rose Gold and £500?

    I could spend near that on an Apple Watch (not Sport) and I think this is still a better buy, even if a budget brand.

    Seems awfully cheap for a Ross gold case.
    Plated possibly?

    I do not profess to be an expert, but the description says the hands and indexes are "rose gold coloured"...id be checking that the case is actually rose gold (and not just rose gold coloured). At that price I'd be very surprised if it was rose gold.

    Lovely looking thing though.

    Yep, agreed. Decription does say "Rose Gold" for the case and coloured for the hands. No mention of "coloured" for the case. Could be a typo, of course. Naughty if so.

    Steel case with rose gold plating, apparently.

    I think it's pretty obvious, and pretty obvious it was a mistake.
    ...but what do I know; I don't even like watches!

    A quick Google confirms plated case, and the OP link as well overpriced, much cheaper here

    Still, I like the steel version

    Some nice looking watches on there, though. May be worth a punt in future.

    Cheap movement, gold plated and mineral glass. Hard to miss.

    that watch is in good-looking, but the price is thought-provoking with the real rose gold plating.
