Incoming: Rolex Platinum Daytona with Diamond Dial.
I just picked up a Rolex Platinum Daytona with the Diamond Dial. I had let my collection numbers creep up to 16 watches and thought I might consolidate a few for a watch that I have always admired. I have previously owned three different Platinum DD II's and had always moved away because I wanted more watches. Now back with an even more expensive option. The watch looks and wears great and the dial is amazing to me. The first PM watch I ever owned was a YG Daytona with the white dial and gold sub dials. I loved that watch and had a five digit SS Submariner and a G-Shock for work and just tooled along. Can't go back but I do like the Daytona. Is this one a keeper. I tell myself yes but who knows. I will enjoy it though. How could you not.

This is the best of the best IMO. I traded mine and severely regret it. They are actually really scarce or really expensive right now, as I was trying to buy it back last week. Enjoy it. I’m jealous.
