    Is it a visual effect or is the new wearing much bigger?

    I see what you mean, I think it might be the dark bezel giving the illusion.

    Thanks guys.

    The new one's lugs and crown guards are a good bit chunkier (seems to be a feature of certain precious metal Daytonas) as are the end links but I think the official measurements are still the same. I suspect a set of calipers might show an extra 0.5-1 mm across the bezel. Feels thicker too, but that's maybe the move from Zenith to Rolex movement.

    Is it the picture lying or does the platinum look larger?

    Just seen the response. Silly me. Glorious pair

    Thanks all. The comedy that is the weight of the Platona versus its size never gets old!

    Love the blue/green pearl effect of the right Daytona, it's the top of my wish list without a doubt
