Was there ever a Plat DD with fluted bezel?
After looking at the new DDII, it got me wishing I could have a second hand Plat DD....but I love the fluted bezel. Was there ever this available from Rolex?

No, either polished or with diamonds only.

I just can't get to like the polished look. Diamonds are MUCH better on Platinum!
Fluted would probably look kind of strange, but it is so striking on Gold. |

Hmmm never knew that...
Guess I will have to go with a WG DD as I want the fluted bezel when I am able to get one... Diamonds just don't do it for me for a watch I want to wear quite a bit

I wear mine everyday. Think of it as scratch repellent. It can't be done!
  Yep, not a single one! |

A little too much bling for me at this point in my life
That is one spectacular watch, but it is just not my lifestyle at the moment.
I do not care for the plain bezel on the Plat DD; I will just keep looking for that special one. My wife however wears the plat dia dial/dia bezel....it is more her lifestyle than mine. |

To the best of my knowledge, the FLUTED bezel is made only from WG, YG or RG - no other precious metal.
Platinum models have Platinum domed bezels. JJ
