It depends on your intentions...
It's not top collector grade, but it's also not priced in that upper range. For what it is (a user) I would say, "maybe." But do you want to use (carry) a oversized 2 1/2" snubby, chambered in .357 Magnum? Personally I wouldn't. On the other hand one with a 3" (I'm dreaming) or 4" barrel might attract my attention, as I'd consider that to be better, given the size and weight of the basic platform. If you thinking in terms of, "it would be nice (if not practical) to have because it's such a cool piece," it becomes a question of what you want to spend $800 on. From my perspective I could think of some equally cool alternatives that I could get for that amount of bucks or less.
I don't necessarily think you could go wrong, but you might be able to get something else that was more right.
