Both are great, however I give the edge to platinum.

I like the YG better. I don't dislike the appearance of the platinum but in this particular variant, there is too much contrast between the pale blue dial and dark colored romans and hands for my taste.

I'd go gold and fluted bezel. If the PT came with a fluted bezel, it would be a much harder decision. Too much classic Rolex DNA in the flute, unless you have that base covered. That said, you can't make a mistake with either.

Pales in light of your collection but really is a pleasureable piece.

YG for sure in the DD for me. I'd go with a white dial if adding to my collection.

The platnuim is nicer but it's not a fair comparison.

I'd be happy with both.
