Platinum Day Date Help

Was offered a platinum day date meteorite with fluted bezel and diamond markers. The price tag is sky high! Torn on what to do!

Is it a watch you've been wanting? If not it's an easy pass. Otherwise it's a great watch!

I don't have a DD or meteorite in my collection but there are other pieces I would want first. It's also like 80k or close to that.

Have you had your eye on this piece for a while, or is it a spontaneous temptation?

It's been on my Thanos-like list for awhile but this is out of the blue and I have several pieces I put in front of it that I would prefer.

love day dates but honestly not sure i can get over that price tag and the added premium of platinum and meteorite dials after all the msrp increases. this would have to be a grail for me to begin with otherwise not sure i could justify paying 2x the price of a gold one

If you have concerns over the price, you should pass. You only buy such a watch when the cost is immaterial relative to the love you have for it.
