"Man's red gold bracelet"

This phrase is confusing me. Surely it's either red or gold and either a man's or a bracelet. How can it be all four?
 
I'm hoping to get a Sony Xperia Pro when they finally launch here a week today. Although recently been tempted by faster, but keyboardless models...

The new iPhone 5 comes out soon but I've struggled to type accurately (sausage finger syndrome) with a touch screen so went for a phone offering both options.

I wouldn't buy an iphone, but yeah I have the same inability to type precisely at any type of speed on a touchscreen. Was going to go for a Desire Z, but specs wise it's getting old, and the problems with the hinge are off putting. It's a shame that barely any android phones offer a full slide out keyboard, physical button input is far superior to touch screen input in my opinion, or at least for text input and navigation of congested screens.

That looks really good and the hard keyboard is spread out nicely.

The BB Torch 2 is a bit more compact for the keyboard.
