5170p of course.
Beautiful front, beautiful back, rectangular pushers and brilliant overall finishing. What more can I ask for in a watch? |

Platona has all the aspects that I look on a watch. Wearability, looks, a market for it (if I ever sell ) , power watch ( in other words a descent bling).
Patek has the movement, a nice blue dial, but doesn’t have wearability and market that Platona has. Those last 2 factors are probably the reason of why the dress watch is dead. So for me Platona Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

+1 for Platona
If they made a 5990/1P I'd be all over it though. I much prefer the more complicated Nautiluses vs. the 5711/1P. |

I bought a Platinum Daytona at the end of last year and it just did not work well for me. I thought it was a little small, 38.5, which I knew prior to my purchase. I also thought I could live with the brown bezel but not so much. If the bezel had of been black, maybe. I looked at the DD40 in platinum but went back to a DD II with the concentric Roman dial. At the price point the Platinum watches are, even pre-owned, it should be right.

I own the 5170p and the platona... The Patek would stay watch wise if I had to pick one... But the Platona has sentimental value... But that's on a personal level.... Not watch vs watch.

Platona. If the 5170P didn't have diamonds, it might sway me. Rolex, unlike Patek, was smart in releasing two versions of the Platona.

For me I’d prefer the 5170P. Platinum Daytona was a good deal back when you could land one for 45k but for 65k no thanks.

The correct way of saying hello in Thai is....

That would be great for all the owners but I don’t know lol For the record I think it’s a safer buy than most any PM watch and think the short term will be kind to it. It’s certainly worth more than a 5711 lol that much I am confident of.

I believe you. Still available on secondary below msrp but I assume buyers want it from their AD to help with future allocations.
