Platona. Platinum over WG for me.

sxdcfv911 · 14 April 2022, 11:16 PM

Platona. It's refined, rare, and aesthetically pleasing. The Meteorite GMT is hard to read, but then again, it's also a very cool piece and more about the dial and not the function of time telling. So I guess... you can't go wrong with either.

CoveWatch · 15 April 2022, 02:31 AM

both are absolutely amazing.. i only own the met gmt but would love a platona also.

Bigsoftee · 15 April 2022, 02:33 AM

BLRO for me

boricuajr · 15 April 2022, 02:54 AM

Platona

Ferdelious · 15 April 2022, 02:57 AM

There's no wrong answer here but I would chose the Daytona.

Watchdoyouwant? · 15 April 2022, 03:25 AM

I don't know why everyone says the meteorite GMT is difficult to read. It's perfectly legible in person. I find the Daytona dial much more cluttered and difficult to read.

My vote is the GMT.

Cru Jones · 15 April 2022, 03:31 AM

Setting aside price, of course the Platona with diamonds.

TswaneNguni · 15 April 2022, 03:32 AM

Own the GMT Meteorite ,but will grab the Platona /baquettes in an instant,selling a kid for funding perhaps.Sorry kids ,love ya ' !

Kiddodoc · 16 April 2022, 10:50 PM

While I think the WG Meteorite GMT is awesome and want it in my collection, to me, the Platinum Daytona is the top of the watch chain!

6120 · 16 April 2022, 10:54 PM

Platinum Daytona, I love the look of that watch.

strettyend · 16 April 2022, 11:02 PM

I think the platinum Daytona with baguettes is more interesting to look at

RDT-G23 · 16 April 2022, 11:46 PM

I have the 126719 BLRO; it is indeed my favorite watch in my collection, just an incredible looking piece. That said, I can't rest until I secure a Platona as well. I doubt this helps much, but it is my position.

Wow, this is the best photo I’ve seen of the diamond version. Bravo

And to the OPs inquiry, I have the meteorite GMT—and it is my favorite. It gets the most wrist time out of my decent collection.

Platona all day much more special than a WG GMT with a special dial.

JSolution · 17 April 2022, 01:12 AM

I have both…

Prefer the GMT.

Can you tell me why? Just curious as I want to add the Meteorite next.

The Daytona is a lovely watch and I’m a fan of PM so the weight of it is a massive plus for me as I also wear it fully linked with +1.

I just feel like the GMT is more wearable, co ordinates more with clothes and is more my style so to speak. I prefer to have a date and I also love meteorite dials.

Don’t get me wrong, there’s no wrong choice here. It’s more a personal preference of GMT>Daytona In general.

I would choose a 116710ln over a ceramic Daytona.

That’s a bummer. I recall that those platinum links aren’t cheap! I know it was important to get all the links when buying the watch.

7sins · 17 April 2022, 09:51 AM

Platona for me with appreciation of more useful complications on the gmt though

russ86 · 17 April 2022, 10:03 AM

Tough one. I own GMT meteorite and ABSOLUTELY love wearing it, but if I would have to pick either one I would go with Platona

Tell them you’d like to bundle the two

Platona is a great but I wish the bezel were either black or dark navy blue. I just can’t stay in love with the brown. Plus the watch is heavy, really heavy.

Between the two, I pick the meteorite GMT.

10klakes · 17 April 2022, 11:05 PM

I think the perfect trio is GMT meteorite, 116508 YG/green dial, and platinum DD. I might be biased tho, since this was my choice…

Love the platinum Daytona, and I’ve indicated for one, but for me the mentioned trip above is perfect.

SPACE PEPSI · 18 April 2022, 01:10 AM

BLRO Meteorite hands down. In person the dial has so much character. Photos, as stunning as they are, simply do not capture the magnificence of this piece.

The Daytona is a beautiful; however for me personally, I would prefer that reference with an alternate color bezel. Should they ever change it to something I enjoy, I'll purchase one also.

ap1 · 18 April 2022, 01:16 AM

Need poll. Platona diamonds for me

Teksurv · 18 April 2022, 01:32 AM

That's a tough choice. I would go with the platona given it's the baguette version. I agree with the other poster, get the platona this year and the GMT next year.
