This one. Once you try it on, it will be no contest. I really appreciate the movement in the SKD, but the weight of that platty is unbelievable. But It has to be THAT dial, the roman.

Considering your collection I'd think you'd enjoy the movement and fun of using the sky dweller

They would have done so already if they followed their normal MO.

I am gonna be a bit different here...SKD WG for me. I truly prefer the Plat DDI over the II but to each his own I guess. Ether way though you can't lose. Now if you really want to step up get both!

I was literally thinking the same exact thing initially but did not post my true thoughts! Classic!

Sheesh now...I had to think a lot to come up with an answer!

The platinum Day-Date II is an incredible watch indeed! However, the white gold Sky-Dweller is my favorite in the trio, if I had to go with a large watch I'd probably choose it over the DD in this case (mind you, had it been the 36mm platinum model it would have been my pick, I tried it and fell in deep love with it).

All in all, white gold Sky-Dweller has my vote!
