Yeah seen it from 65k to 74k in the grey, doesn’t make sense to buy it from an AD unless you don’t have an AD with a relationship. And yeah future allocators are just the cherry on top. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I own both and while the 5170P is perfect in so many ways, the reality is I wear the Platona far more often because it's a sports watch. BUT, it never stops being heavy. The watch constantly reminds you it's on your wrist and I find that annoying. I think it's partially due to the oyster bracelet, because I recently tried on a platinum DD40 and it was a much different wrist feel.

Which Platinium you you preferred ?

I won’t even go with the price going down issue, because that’s not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that there is no market for it. Does It has WIS appreciation ? Absolutely, unfortunately we don’t rule the market. The only way to enjoy dress watches is to buy it , enjoy it and don’t worry about the market , cut your losses from the moment you buy it. Personally I can’t do that , yeah I love the hobby but don’t have enough money to don’t care. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As for platona, I don't like chronographs with screw-down pushers and I don't like overly heavy watches so it's a no-go for me.

Exactly, that’s the ticket cut your losses from the beginning and don’t care about value, because if you do you are gonna be miserable. I know I can’t stop thinking about it, so it’s all about knowing yourself Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It is funny that the very same reason some people dislike the platona is my reason to prefer and love it, i.e. The weight

The weight is the main reason why I love full platinum watches.
I want Patek to make a 5990/1P for this reason. :) I'd buy two, damnit. |
