Platona with Oysterflex
Does anyone know if the oysterflex from the WG Daytona can be fitted to the PT Daytona?
I am just wondering if I purchase a platona if I could have that option if I wanted it. Thanks |

Never seen this, that's a lot of cash to leave in a drawer.

.
That should fit, but that should also won't be nice as the Platinum Daytona don't have the endlinks delivered with Oysterflex Daytona. |

Process would be the same as it was for my 116500.
- source the Oysterflex - have custom Platinum Endlinks made $$$$$ :) - use the original bracelet clasp Totally possible, but not easy... |

Thanks
Didn't realize about the PT endlinks needed so wouldn't do it if I ever took the dive to the platona.

Quite
Not for me. With the brown bezel it would need to be on brown rubber (IMO) and its not a good look.

I think it could be done as explained above but I think that one of the best things Rolex does on PM models is the bracelet. I would not do it and I don't like the look.

Why not put it on an Everest rubber band? I know it is not an Oysterflex but should satisfy the urge. Def not my cup of tea but to each their own. Good luck!!

I am expecting to see this as a novelty as this year to mark 5th Anniversary to the Daytona 116506
