That is the model that caught my eye. No diamonds and ice blue stick dial. Any full size photos?

Thx,

Mike

Maybe TRF should go off-line. My bank ballance will not suffer so much! Great looking MAster-P, love the daytona lurking in background!

That's a cool watch, no doubt. I like it! I wouldn't mind having it with a white stick dial and oyster (!) platinum bracelet. A perfect "sleeper".

Best,

A

Yumm...

I'm assuming these are very heavy (and dense). How much more do they weigh than steel models? Even the YG or WG are considerably heavier from my test drives.

The plat. is VERY heavy when you wear it. You really notice it when you take it off; it is a good kind of heavy. I have a TT sub which is considerably lighter than these...

That's what I did. And the AD said, "I can make you a heck of a deal on this particular watch." My jaw dropped, I knew from what I had read on this and other forums that this was a once in a lifetime deal, one not to walk away from. Way more than I was planning to ever in my life spend, but sometimes, it lands in your lap and you go for it.

So if you do not mind me asking, what is "a heck of a deal" equate to? I ask because I am in the market for one and want to know what kind of deal to jump on.

Thanks!
