Hi Oliver
I've had a closer look at the pictures and besides the beautiful bracelet, it looks very similar and more than likely in better condition than mine. Even the tips of the hour and minute hands have faded in the same way. In my picture the yellow is slightly desaturated - in reality its more yellow. I would say that both had a lot of wear and sun and I'm continuing this trend - especially today which is the hottest day in the UK this year. I'm sure it will be worth the wait.
regards
Paul
