Opinions (and experiences) on the 228206?
Got this DD40 platinum offered by my AD yesterday - I have not really ever thought about it before but it appeals to me (even the dial).
How do you think about it? Maybe there are some owners who are willing to share their experience.
Thxs in advance 
somehow this one touches me more than the Platona (which is on order)
both being in the same range
I declined on the everose GMT
because I just don't see me wearing it often / very flashy. the GMT meteorite is on order as well but I would probably hand it over to a good friend as the dial is not my liking
It's a lovely watch but don't pay the RRP when other options are available
just checked
but you can't save too much with the gray market; in the best case five grand for this specific version with diamonds but several years of age, not stickers anymore so not sure whether unworn
Provided you are OK with the diamond markers (they are discreet enough and differentiate the reference a bit, so I don’t mind them), then this is a pretty terrific Rolex!👍😉
i agree with you... this is a watch that can go well with baguette diamonds.... they are so discreetly placed!
I actually started to like the diamond markers when trying it
good thing is that I can order a second more sporty dial (blue with quadrants is one I like) and keep this one - so I can change the character every now and then

Day date was my dream watch years ago. So sharp, and classy. If you don’t like it in a few months , sell or trade and move on. I’ve never regretted buying, I’ve regretted not buying plenty of times.
Plt Day Date
Love the dial, but the weight is a huge issue for me. I prefer the white gold as it is about half the weight.
Why some of the ice blue dial is colder than some?
In this case it is very cold.. ie very light blue..
Often I see on advertisements are much darker hue..
Mine looks almost sliver in most lighting..
🤔
all pics I have seen of this baguette dial are rather light - maybe it depends whether you have those baguette stones or not?
pls share a pic of yours
Considering you're asking us about it, implies you don't like it enough and you need us to push you over the edge...
Walk away from this piece. It doesn't seem you like it enough!
Very cool watch. Being a non-diamond fan, I like this platinum piece with diamond indexes though. Congratulations.
The perfect and understated one
I used to think the DD40 Romans... because they are quite original... but having seen them in person... I feel they make the dial shrink inward... anyway... how can you possibly argue with this? Unless the weight of it all... a thing you wear when 'in that mood' or looking for 'that effect'. Not a daily... but who cares about that. Huge congrats. there are many kings of watches these days... more kings than there used to be... but this one is the original king... many congrats!
Thank you all for your valuable insights - so I just purchased it
Also took the blue roman sector dial for a swap whenever I feel like it. And a white steel Daytona will be a nice companion as well ;-)
Great watch! Is the motif dial also an option?
Beautiful piece and one I am looking to get soon. Do you know - if it comes with the baguette index dial originally - are we able to order the motif (laser cross-hatch) dial from our AD without surrendering the baguette dial to Rolex? Also, does it depend on which country you’re in or is this a global Rolex policy? Thank you much
you don't have to surrender the dial if it is with diamonds
so you can order any other dial that has been dedicated to the watch - even another one with diamonds. And I suppose this is global policy but your AD will know
