I wish this was for me! Wild piece in person.

NAUI1982 · 31 October 2024, 09:53 AM

White gold meteorite DD or is that platinum?

173rdabn · 31 October 2024, 10:03 AM

HMMM not really sure of the look.

Platinum I believe. SA said it’s the first combo of that watch he’s ever seen.

Still trying to understand it tbh.

Wow

Interesting looking watch and clearly one that divides opinion on how it looks

I must be the only person that doesn't like these dials.

1William · 31 October 2024, 09:40 PM

It is a beautiful watch.

HogwldFLTR · 31 October 2024, 09:48 PM

Fantastic; I've been interested in a meteorite dial for my WG41. They're fairly rare. I thought the Meteorite was only available on WG but I see it's also available on Pt ones.

Jackie Daytona · 31 October 2024, 10:12 PM

Quite a heavy hitter indeed. Nice watch!

padi56 · 31 October 2024, 10:16 PM

Just cannot understand todays terminology with watches like the label heavy hitter.

I'm with you. Meteorite just doesn't really do anything for me.

Likewise but admire the skill to produce the meteorite dials everyone unique but still not a huge fan

watchwatcher · 31 October 2024, 11:46 PM

An amazing piece.

Meteorite seems to be a heavy sh.. ehhhm hitter

Well, I love it on the WG DayDate with the diamond baguettes, but do not like it on the Daytonas or the GMTs (any metal or any bezel). It seems to me that Rolex selects the "bolder" meteorite patterns for the GMT and the more "refined" patterns for the DayDate (if that make any sense).

Not liking the meteorite Pepsi GMT (sorry PADi), I didn't really expect to like the meteorite DayDate, but it really is spectacular in person & the WG both avoids the heft (both weight-wise & cost-wise) and the (IMHO) slightly harsher white-bluish hue of the platinum. (Though that could be b/c I'm so used to seeing platinum DDs & Daytonas paired with ice-bluish dials.)

I saw a WG one before and it was beautiful. Of course if I had bought it I'll probably be wishing it was 36mm. I think it was only offered in 40mm?

I have to admit it would be cool to have a meteorite dial but not sure how long the fascination would last. Kind of on the fence with this one. If I did get lucky enough to get a platinum watch, I think I would want the ice blue dial.
