Easy for me, as I'm in the minority who doesn't like the Daytona. So, a number of other pieces would be preferable.
To be honest I wouldn't want just one watch anyway, even if it was my grail. I would want at least a sports watch, an "allrounder" and a dress watch.

If you can afford a platona now, it is just a matter of time you will acquire other pieces on top of the platona. Doesn't have to be all or nothing. Look long term.

I dont really care for the Platona, so i would get different watches of same value. If it had to be a Rolex, potentially a rose gold Day Date or a RG skydweller on croc

I've tried the Platona on a few times including two days ago, both times the AD was hoping to tempt me. I could trade half my watches in and get one but I have zero interest in that at least at this point. If the Platona looked just like this in terms of the dial and bezel I'd be more tempted, but to each his own.
I haven't thought of it before but if I were to have a Grail watch I guess this would be it. I'd prefer an authentic one of these in SS over a new one like it in platinum everyday of the week though. |

i tried the Datyona on a couple of times, i was really not comfortable with the weight of the watch on my wrist in those brief sampling moments. ultimately i chose a complicated Patek manual wind… in either case however, i do not believe they would exist perfectly in a 1 watch situation.
