I too was thinking if Rolex stops production of this watch after a certain number, it will become a collector's item and after market prices will go up. But I think Rolex is unlike Patek or other manufacturers that limit their production of special edition watches. They want to maximize profit when they can. Right now there seems to be a healthy demand for the Platinum Daytona despite the price. How long this demand will continue, we shall see, as I think most people are fascinated by the watch, but after looking at the price move on.
I tried on the watch at an AD and it is quite heavy and looks great in person despite having the plastic wrapping on. Another customer right after me tried it on as well, but seemed to pass on the price.
