Hi Everyone,

Any recommendations for platinum watches? I am hoping to find a watch which has a platinum case and platinum bracelet. Only requirement is that the watch dial is symmetrical (preferably no date).

My interest in platinum started when I wore a platinum ring, I really like the weight of it. Recently, I tried a White Gold Daytona and was surprised by it’s weight. That brought me to search for a platinum watch!

I have done some search on brands which I am familiar with (e.g. Seiko, Grand Seiko & Credor) but I couldn’t find one which has platinum case and platinum bracelet.

Some background on my collection, I currently own mainly Seiko watches (Diver, multiple Astrons, etc) and a Grand Seiko (Jade Iwate SBGW255). Looking to acquire a Lake Suwa (SLGA007) in the near future but I am also looking for a platinum watch to diversify my collection.

    Do you have a particular budget in mind? No platinum watch+bracelet is going to be cheap but there’s still a good bit of difference between various models.

      Unfortunately I have a budget in mind, probably 20 - 30k USD. I am open to any brand and models as the mainstream ones are definitely out of my budget. Thanks for sharing!

        Unfortunately don’t know any watches at that budget without a date. As ridiculous as it may sound but that’s not a lot if we’re talking about watches with a platinum bracelet. So your options are already pretty limited.

        The ladies DJ, that was already mentioned, would be the primary choice. At the upper end of your budget an older 36mm day date (118206) would also be a possibility.

          Got it! At least this confirms my research that platinum bracelets are rare. I was afraid that I am missing something.

          The datejust platinum sounds interesting, will take a look at that
