regardless of price its a more "exclusive" metal. Both in nature and in watches.

Metal prices have no direct bearing on the final watch price difference anyway as there isnt that much steel in a steel watch or gold in a gold watch. Its harder to work with too, but im guessing that isnt related to the premium vs gold as its not that much harder to work with.

You also have to consider a Pt watch is 95% Pt and a gold watch is 75% gold
