Happy saturday folks! Good weather and the sun is out.. Means it's time to appreciate the slight differences as it catches the sunlight at different angles :D

Seconded the Daytona, if cause I have a soft spot for it.

And by the way, the white face is the one that makes the watch look bigger. So if you find it small...

The GMT definitely the more "utilitarian" watch, but for some reason, the all-black bezel does not seem to have much pop. The batman really got that X-factor.

Which place was that?

The gmt feels quite solid.

Funny thing abt Daytona. In US, the white face is the watch given to Daytona champion and is the more sought after color. But in Singapore, black face model is more sought after.
Yeah, black is more popular in Asia.

But personally, white is my preference. So for people who like white, it's good to be in this region, especially in the preowned market.

But thing is, got feel for the GMT all-black bezel?

Platona is a very interesting one. For most of us, the question is:

Fanciest multi-purpose Rolex or SG's cheapest new car?

Ahhh. I think they do. Like before warranty end. Then shall wait till 5th year than service Haha

I don't dive. At the moment. Haha haven't get license Haha

I doubt it, unless they service is open the case drop the movement in solution and be done... It is at a cost to company to open the case take the movement apart clean and oil assemble back and regulate it. That's few days worth of work!

Read your manual, warranty does not cover servicing.

If my car 36 mth warranty cover servicing sweet!

Lol. That time my tag before warranty ended. I get them to check. They did it for free leh. Not sure what they do to it.
But since it's not wise to service it if there's no issue. Then maybe the 5th year then service.
Haha not cheap to service also haha
