I think this is just for exhibition only (10:11) not for sale.

HogwldFLTR · 30 October 2021, 09:00 PM

The hand and crown position indicate that the watch isn't functional.

you cannot just walk in to buy a plantona.

TimepieceRPP · 30 October 2021, 09:09 PM

I want it but as other OPs said, I believe it is for exhibition only, unless otherwise should have the price shown.

JonaG · 30 October 2021, 09:14 PM

I guess I’ll just have to cancel my flight.

JSolution · 30 October 2021, 10:06 PM

Yes as others have said they’re not just going leave a free £60 grand sitting in the window for the first passer by.

Big Tex Rolex · 30 October 2021, 10:20 PM

I’ll take it anyway … and just wear it twice a day … for a minute in the morning, and for a minute at night !!!

Not only the 10:11, but I went and found a photo online of an exhibition-only display case, and the sub-dial hands are all set exactly the same there as they are here.

GB-man · 30 October 2021, 10:59 PM

I remember when buying one of those meant they took the 116500 white out of the safe for you and promised you a gmt too lol

samuel019 · 30 October 2021, 11:02 PM

OMG these exhibition models.....

Yes I get it. It gives the A D the ability to be able to show the watch over and over again as opposed to a quick sale to one of there whales or lucky buyers but come on Rolex.

Slap a movement in that bad boy and let someone enjoy that beauty especially a Platona

YEP!!!!! Me tooooooooooo

Or basically any full PM. Remember those days??

Hey buy this and you can/will get whatever you want. Oh the good ol days. Never thought in my lifetime I would ever say the phrase "good ol days" especially when it comes to Rolex buying.

macrowatch · 30 October 2021, 11:07 PM

I saw that watch. And a RG Olive dial. On both told me not for sale. (But didn’t say exhibition only, though that distinction might have been lost in translation).

Snap it up, I'm seeing reports of many Rolex models in stores all over the world! Must be a influx of stock due to a burst in the supply chain problem. Get them why you can, this won't last long!

Big Tex Rolex · 31 October 2021, 06:08 AM

I really don’t get why people get lambasted for sharing with others rumors they’ve heard.
I welcome that kind of information, whether it proves out to be true or false, it’s the sharing of information, that makes a forum.

Should every post be … Submariner Date, or No Date (which I have posted myself by the way !!)

Hey, if you’ve heard something, from a reputable source … and I consider an AD a reputable source … share it with the group.

SORRY … THIS WAS MEANT FOR ANOTHER THREAD.

Simply not true !

I did, and I have, and yes I already provided the pictures !

Stealthdriver · 31 October 2021, 08:17 AM

Got to try one on last week at a local Rolex dealer. However, it was a "used" one so it cost $129,000.

Not anymore. I did walk into the Turks and Caicos AD in 2017 and was offered a platona. Should have bought it
