My favorite duo

I have 3 lovely others but it's very hard for me not to reach for one of these two DD40's. The PM weight is something that I just love! I feel super thankful to have each of these timepieces

100% agree! I could easily see building 3-4 DD watch collection and have all the bases covered

Platinum DD is fantastic and I now prefer it to the RG. The YG isn’t too shabby either!

Rest of your collection gets a thumbs up as well.

The platinum DD40 is something else. One watch for life material.
