The AD called about the Platinum Daytona... your views are needed!
I’ve yearned for this watch since its release. It’s a lot of money and I wondered what you think - should I buy or pass?
Thanks guys!
Thanks guys!
That's a lot of money, indeed, but it all depends on how much you love it. [nt]

Here is the one I could see...
Much cooler in the real than on pictures. Heavy, yes, but very comfortable once on the wrist.
Your question gives me the impression that it could become a safe queen
and thus I would not take it
I think that this is a fantastic reference since everyone knows how expensive this watch is
Yet however, its not bling bling at all. That is a combination we dont have very often. I really like the color combination, too. Fantastic. However, i personally would buy a Patek, Lange or Vacheron complication for the money, enjoy your journey!
Your choice
But I would go all in and take the diamonds index version - don't be shy ;-)
Agree, much prettier watch that is w the all ice blue dial and w/o those life boat shaped markers [nt]

It’s a special Daytona I would...
Pull the trigger for it if I were you!
I believe the only way you can respond to that question yourself is : how did you feel when you had it on your wrist ?
It's a fantastic watch
but only you can answer that question. Lots of options at that price.
I always loved this watch, but the heft is a risk of making it a safe queen. [nt]

If you're undecided or have doubts it probably doesn't make sense [nt]
Aesthetically it's beautiful.
i like it a lot.... yes, its a lot of money, for sure, but it's a platinum daytona (50yrs edition, right!?)
if i had the hard money, i would go for it. i like the weight too!
The best modern Rolex! The Daytona design with the heft & gleam of platinum + its unique blue & brown make the watch mesmerising. If you can buy one, do so. Certainly. [nt]

Money is secondary beside, for love money does count
You are the one who getting married,
if you divorce probably you will be break even
if it is a forced marriage it probably won't last very long and too soon may be mean some losses.
For example I like some of its features but it is not for me, my wife stays safe because I do not have to sell the house ;-)
That is one of the watches that will never leave my collection
If you can afford it, I am sure you won't regret it!
If I could, I would!
Lovely dial but yes to the mildy-trained or expert eye, it will inevitably generate some attention. Half the joy of platinum is other people not knowing, from that angle it's a fail but then again, what a dial!
The thing that struck me the most is that you’ve “yearned for this watch since its release”...it’s a really strong feeling that we don’t have for many watches.
Frankly, if that feeling was confirmed when you tried it on your wrist...then it’s such a great Rolex that I would go for it — no doubt about it!😉🥂
Yes yes and yes.
IMO the nicest modern Daytona bar none.
This pic might help you decide.
Do it.

Since you are not 100% sure yourself
and need our opinion: let it go. Pass it.
There´s no place for doubts in this price range.
IMHO.
All the best

If you are buying from an AD I think it’s a go
These are not so readily available and trading at a an ever-growing premium. I’m sure you will love it, but if you don’t, because it’s a hot commodity you could always get out of it.
Personally, I think it’s the coolest, most special watch rolex has made in many decades.

Irregardless how I love the watch . . .
. . .+1 to the idea that "if you have any doubts, probably not the purchase you should make".
One of my horological regrets
Not getting it a couple of years back. Offered by AD at a discount.
Was already on my wrist.
A friend is also contemplating a similar issue (platona OR AP RG brick chronograph). I told him the same message above and showed this same picture.
