It’s a lot heavier, but still very comfortable. I use mine a lot, and no problem with the weight - rather perfect :) Mine is 275 gr with one link off. @jval - 238 gr has to be wrong. |

platinum Daytona
yes I was wrong on the weight at 238g I think I meant 283g
My Platinum watch weight feels so wonderful every morning I put it on. Now, when I put my old submariner on it now feels like a fake or a toy watch. What a strange feeling as I almost don't like wearing my submariner anymore. Ive had it for a few months and constantly, I catch my self admiring how nice this watch looks and feels. others, are always looking to see what this watch is. Most don't know and have not seen this often, thats what I like. one other note, I started out wearing my watch as my everyday, but I am to rough with it getting slightly scratch so now I am back to wearing my 27yr old sub mariner. Now I want a everyday watch, I am looking for something nicer that the black submariner and I have my eye on the white-gold blue submariner but not interested in spending $36K just yet. The platinum is soft and I will need to buff it back to luster and now I wear it on weekends, dinners, meetings.... thanks and all have a blessed Christmas and New year. oh yeah.... GEAUX JEAUX....

I don't see so many on the forum these days; I wonder how many are still owners?
Here's mine today. Using the sweep second hand as a date indicator. |

Beautiful shots, gents! It's interesting that there seem to be a lot more baguette dials being chosen recently. It's also interesting how many people describe it as their favorite watch. Which I do as well.
No wrong choices here, IMO.

When I lift my watch out of its little nest each morning it feels like there's some invisible force pulling it toward the center of the planet. |
