I'm pretty confident if the seller knows what they have a $10K "DD" with diamond bezel probably wouldn't have the exact same movement.

Only recently did platinum exceed the price of gold which can be sold by us mere folk at about $30 a gram (for the sake of purchasing a watch and determining gold value). Also, I believe platinum is only used in the case, bezel and bracelet of a Rolex, not the movement so I don't know why the movement of a platinum rolex would be better since I don't know if the movement contain platinum parts but I know it contains gold parts. And, with the difference in the price of platinum and gold being so close, I don't see how it warrants such an extravagant price tag but like everyone has said - price will find a buyer.

I do know the platinum rolex watches are worth more than the gold and maybe less are made and that's why these are so expensive.
