If you had to choose between these which one? And which one do you think is more limited/rare

Day Date 40 YG
Day Date 40 RG green dial
Day Date 40 platinum laser ice blue dial
Daytona platinum
Daytona YG green dial

Definitely the ice blue diagonal DD40 in platinum. The dial looks incredible and there's nothing out there like it.

I agree. These rarely come up for sale and not very many people have them.

You have to go Daytona platinum. There is nothing like it.

RustyShackleford · 22 June 2018, 11:21 PM

Can't stop looking at platinum day-date photos. In love with the "ice-cube" dial.

Speedbird-1 · 22 June 2018, 11:49 PM

What's the value differential between the two Platinum jobs?

Love that ice blue face, wouldn't have a use for the Daytona
stopwatch function, but if it were a gift, I'd have to take
the most valuable.

Retail for platinum day date is $62,500
and daytona is $75,000

hbombkid · 23 June 2018, 11:41 AM

Ice blue dial all day. I wish they made that in the regular date just.

superstarmar · 23 June 2018, 11:51 AM

Platona if I had the means without a doubt !!!

CHOSEN1 · 23 June 2018, 12:07 PM

Surprised the daytona YG green dial only got 2 votes. Its a beauty

Ckci · 23 June 2018, 12:22 PM

None of the above for me. I have a strong preference for SS sorts watches.

Nikrnic · 23 June 2018, 12:31 PM

DD40 Platinum Blue. I'm thinking it's one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever seen.

Platona. Preferably, the one with the all Ice-blue dial and Diamond hour markers. It's rarer than the regular one with Brown sub-dials.

Might be rarer but I see them more often, almost weekly actually

Malibuboy · 23 June 2018, 01:05 PM

I love the ice blue DD most of all, but that RG w/olive face is my close second.

I picked my smurf due to “one watch” but if I buy another it’s the DD in Plat. If I buy a third it’s that RG olive.

Dang, that would be a nice three watch collection!

Dis · 23 June 2018, 02:38 PM

Honestly, ask me this same question a week ago and I would have said Platinum Daytona. After seeing a DD40 in Platinum in person just recently, I can’t help but love the dial, dimensions and sheer mass of the watch. Definitely a future grail for me.

both are great watches

watchwatcher · 23 June 2018, 11:43 PM

It would be a tough choice between the Platinum Daytona and the Platinum DD. Since I already have the DD of my dreams, though, I would go Platona.

Same here, I'd toss a coin.

I’d go with the yellow gold Day-Date 40

SkyKing31 · 24 June 2018, 03:46 AM

None of the above. I would choose the DD 36 in YG with green dial and arabic numbers on a concealed clasp oyster bracelet and domed smooth bezel.

Or a DD 36 in Platinum with a white MOP carousel diamond dial, President bracelet and diamond bezel.

Daytona platinum aka the Platona. Hands down, no doubt.

I would probably take the yellow gold DD.
The rarest is probably the diamond dial Platona posted above. I like that one as well as the platinum DD.
Tough choices, but good problems to have.

SLS · 24 June 2018, 04:20 AM

Platinum DD for, with the Platinum Daytona as a very close second.
