Hi Everyone,
Any recommendations for platinum watches? I am hoping to find a watch which has a platinum case and platinum bracelet. Only requirement is that the watch dial is symmetrical (preferably no date).
My interest in platinum started when I wore a platinum ring, I really like the weight of it. Recently, I tried a White Gold Daytona and was surprised by it’s weight. That brought me to search for a platinum watch!
I have done some search on brands which I am familiar with (e.g. Seiko, Grand Seiko & Credor) but I couldn’t find one which has platinum case and platinum bracelet.
Some background on my collection, I currently own mainly Seiko watches (Diver, multiple Astrons, etc) and a Grand Seiko (Jade Iwate SBGW255). Looking to acquire a Lake Suwa (SLGA007) in the near future but I am also looking for a platinum watch to diversify my collection.
Daytona is the most practical full platinum option, I mean it’s literally called the plat. Of course that’ll cost ya about 100 grand. for 10-15% of that you can get a yachtmaster which I feel more tastfully uses platinum for the bezel, not bracelet.
I agree! I am a big fan of the Daytona (yet to get one), especially after trying the WG Blue Dial Daytona. Ignoring the price being out of my budget, I actually prefer if they have more options to dial colours. I didn’t know about a YM having a platinum option, will definitely take a look. Thanks for sharing!
