Have to say the feeling / weight of solid gold in wrist is AMAZING, can't imagine how a bigger size solid gold piece or a platinum watch like the Platona must feel!

Very handsome watch! I agree with Kilyung, PMs become addictive. Additionally, I like the 36mm size, I believe it adds a touch of class that large watches do not...

Hi Adam, some similarities of course, but a quite different feeling on the wrist! Will PM you / elaborate on this later; Tudor DD is for sale!

I'm really loving these WG Day-Dates. They're the definition of class, comfort, and stealth. Congrats on an incredible watch!
