I'm not sure which one is easier to read. I my book they're both a little hard to read as the eyes get older, but they look HOT !!

Despite recently adding the platona, I am going to actively seek the black one now. I'm a convert!

Wow! After not "falling" for any of the recent Rolex models, I am in love with this watch... of course, I want the prettiest, most expensive girl on the block. LOL

The platinum Daytona has always been my favourite Daytona. A watch I dream of having one day. My grail if you will. Mainly because of the weight, ceramic Besel and the clash in dial colours. Now however after seeing the White Daytona C I'm thinking hang on this may be the way to go. What can owners say about the weight? My AD has none available to go in a see for myself. If the watch has a nice weight to it I may have saved myself almost 50k on the platona. Thanks.
P.s pictures look great! All wear in good health!!!
