Might do you well to see if you can get one here with the automatic 35% discount on everything with the currency conversion. That said I bought mine at MSRP before the price hike and it took me about 6 months to find. I too wanted the no diamonds but the “plain” Platona is not seemingly available anywhere I looked. Only baguette dial. So that’s what I ended up with.

I don’t buy to invest. I buy to wear. It’s my new daily. That said so far it’s holding its value well and if the rumours of its discontinuation are true then the value should increase... its a nice bonus but not why I own one. Good luck with your search.
Interesting. I guess it would be nice if it’s true! I used to see both at ADs and bought mine used almost 3 1/2 years ago. Have been daily-ing it ever since. I don’t imagine I’ll ever sell it, so don’t worry about it looking like it’s seen the outside of a bank vault. 😳

I guess it would be cool if they disco’d it, but I imagine Rolex “enjoys” selling them, so I kinda doubt they’d do that without a replacement.
