Let’s see how common PM really is in this echo chamber of watch collecting.

bp1000 · 17 July 2024, 07:32 AM

I think one of the good things about TRF is despite it being mainly about Rolex watches the members here have very individual tastes and opinions on what differences and nuances suit them… and they are willing to debate the differences respectfully.

I wouldn’t call it an echo chamber. Not when we have 10+ page threads on relatively imperceptible differences between 11 and 12 series Daytonas.

P.s. I own at least 1 pm watch.

Does the 16622 YM Platinum Dial / Bezel count?

Right?

My Submariner and GMT would qualify

If TT does not count, then No. As a female I do have a lot of PM and precious stone jewelry, though.

I see a 36mm DD in your future. Maybe a 118238

yep, this is my situation as well. I know others have said that once you go PM, you'll never go back - but, I'm wrist weight sensitive, so that is a no-go for me.

PenDelicate · 17 July 2024, 07:42 AM

I made an almost comically stereotypical progression.

Wore SS Sub for years, was never interested in two-tone. Then woke-up one Sunday to find I'd developed a passionate interest in two-tone. Bought a two-tone Daytona, swore it would be my last watch. And it was. Until last year. When I traded the Sub and Daytona for a yellow gold P-serial Daytona on black leather strap (116518). Was absolutely enamoured with it. Swore it was my last watch. And it was. Until last Saturday. When I traded it in against Chrono24's cheapest full yellow gold K-serial Daytona in Europe (116528). What - what - a beautiful watch.

This is clearly my last watch :-D

4reRlxGuy · 17 July 2024, 08:02 AM

It's hard to explain but once you get your 1st PM on bracelet (my OF isn't the same) a steel watch doesn't feel the same.

A 42mm AP offshore in steel has a similar heft and feel.

I have three but still hoping to score a WG blue dial Daytona. Grey is the only option now

Would love to get the WG blue dial Daytona as well.

Thinking of tradking my SS white dial Daytona for it.
One watch collection in full PM.

Let me know lol. Acquired during the covid craze.

Had this twisted idea that I would get each precious mtl for a gmt, sub, and daytona.

I've only worn my wht gold Pepsi and my yellow gold zenith daytona. All the rest have never left the bank.

Don’t have a PM, but I’d like to eventually get a Pt DD36, smooth bezel, with either a white, black, or silver dial.
