Saw one of these beasts at a local AD over the weekend, man was it heavy ... it's an awesome watch ... one day I will have a platinum watch, but based on what I saw, this watch is stunning ... only the platinum DDII seemed heavier than the this one in the AD's case.

I think it is awesome that you have two passions so intertwined. That watch is the boss for sure. I think it would look badass on a strap. I know it's missing the point.... The PLATINUM! But a strap would look sharp. But I'd have to always have the band on as well.

My AD recently received their first platinum Daytona in and I had the great pleasure of trying it on

That is as close as I plan to get but wow, it sure is nice and heavy, although comfortable in the flesh.

Yes the weight is like nothing else. The blue dial is also something to see

I must admit, I have never liked the look of a Daytona...but the brown and blue are simply amazing in this piece.
