Pt vs WG
I hear what you’re saying and I hear and read it more often that people mention that platinum feels heavy on the wrist.
In absolute numbers a pt version will be heavier than a gold one due to the higher density of the metal.
But I own several platinum watches and truth be told, I’ve never “experienced” them as being* heavy or uncomfortable.
What I do notice is the sensation of wearing such a precious metal. It’s hard to describe as it is purely emotional but it gives me a, by lack of better word, “rich” feeling to wear them
Vacheron Constantin Les Historiques Toledo Platinum.
The modern evocation of the Cioccolatone, an original watch with a lot of charm. And quite nice, with this platinum case, slate grey dial combination! Credit picture: Phillips. What do you think? Best, Nicolas ...

Indeed iconic
This is an exceptional nice watch, has tradition and legacy all written over it. But funny enough, the first thought that came to mind when I just saw a glimpse of the photo was: “Hermès?”
One of my favorites yet to experience
Sometimes I feel that it is only a matter of time before I hunt this one seriously. I think if one comes along at the right time and price, I will not hesitate. All three version os the Toledo are lovely, but the gray dial of the platinum kills me. The ph...
The white dial encased in white gold is also superb!
And a very reasonable value in the pre-owned market.
Fortunate to have one
I purchased one at a Sothebys auction 5 or 6 years ago. I really love it. I am, however, a lover of heavy watches. I like to feel the weight on my wrist. ...
