More platinum less diamonds

Just knowing your other watches.

It looks good though! ENJOY!

I was stalking another member who had one before I realized that he wasn't responding to my posts because he had been banned. So I then had Turdneau bring one in for me to look at. Once I saw it in person and knew I loved it I ordered one with DavidSW!

Dude, that's an amazing watch. And that's perfect the way you did it. Go to the AD for a test drive, then buy it from a Trusted Seller here.

BIG CONGRATS.

Holy crap that is beautiful! I've seen several of those in the AD's case and each one has their own unique look, I can see why you found it so appealing. A huge congrats, enjoy it!

It fills a definite hole in my collection. I wanted something all YG, and I sold my WG Daytona because I have so many WG type watches already, so I wanted a more differential Daytona in my collection. So this fills both the Daytona and YG spot.

Now, all I need is an all RG of some sort later on down the road. I know which one I want; I just can't float it right now.

I used to have a YG DD with white roman dial, and I regretted selling it because I like solid yellow gold. What I didn't need was a second DD and the white dial. I like that this fills the spot that was left empty by selling that DD, while the Tahitian MOP is more versatile than white IMO...

Thinking about a Sky-Dweller? Or you have had enough with GMT!?

Congratulations anyway, I am not a fan of diamonds but it is beautiful nonetheless!

I don't like any of the Sky-Dwellers aesthetically so far. If they made the intersecting circle more subtle I may one day be interested. As of now I don't like the contrasts they chose at all.
