Been thinking ALOT about the platinum DD with an ice blue fluted bezel with marker sticks. Does this reference get alotta love?

OmegaJJH · 24 December 2023, 02:53 AM

I imagine it’s one of those watches that is truly incredible in person.

A ‘if you know, you know’ watch. For the person that wants to stay under the radar.

Scooped up mine yesterday and the forums have been very kind. When I learned what model my AD had gotten I was disappointed that it wasn’t a baguette dial.

I definitely don’t feel that way after seeing it in person. It’s a real piece that only watch nerds will notice. The dial is VERY responsive to light, and can look almost silver in a darker setting - making the markers really pop.

That watch with baguette indices is my absolute grail! I bloody love it!

ltmgeller · 24 December 2023, 03:38 AM

For me, the feel of Platinum is what does it for me. It's almost electric.

Based on how my platinum ring has worn, I’d love to see what a platinum DD looks like with regular wear.

Those photos look great

Mine has been very close to a daily since the fall and before that was a DD 36 for over a year. So I think they wear pretty well and sturdy.

My platinum ring is really soft also and it’s main reason I am not that interested in a platinum watch. I would beat that watch to hell and back if I tried to wear it a lot.

I like the smooth bezel a lot more on the plat DD

Jocke · 24 December 2023, 09:17 PM

I think my 36mm WG version with the glacier dial and fluted bezel looks more balanced than the 40mm version.

Nice shot, Jocke. I didn't know this reference existed in white gold.

It's not. This is a regular Ref 18039 in WG with a glacier dial from a Plat DD.

I have owned several over the years and have always enjoy them but move them along after awhile. No problem but a lot of money to have tied up in a watch that only get limited wrist time. I will probably circle back around at some point and do it all again.

You beat your watches to hell and back?

Why?

Perfect picture

Am I the only one who likes the glacier dial with diamond baguettes? Stunning in person.

I much prefer the sticks over the Romans on this dial.

Alo(ha)waii · 26 December 2023, 04:44 PM

Just got one with the baguettes for Christmas. Edited my post as tapa talk uploaded a terrible photo. Will upload a better one tomorrow!
