IF you are going to buy 2 my picks would be:

116506 with brown sub dials
&
116519LN

The 116519 covers you with the casual/sporty look on the Oysterflex Rubber strap!

Funny...and true.

I would not get two platonas.

But sounds like financially it’s a non issue. If that’s the case, go balls out and do whatever you want.

Life’s a blink of the eye. Do what makes you happy.

So for me, I’d look at a different platinum model, if that’s the metal you’re specifically looking for. Just my .02
