Friends, what your view on that one? Am having my 70ies playboy moment. The platinum one is nice and hefty but far too expensive. 3738 looks right.

Aesthetically: it doesn't launch many boats for me
Financially: you can't go wrong with a PP
Realistically: buy the watch YOU like: you're the one who will be looking at it the most.

I really like the Golden Ellipse, though I'd much prefer the platinum to the gold.

If you're getting one, there are two limited edition pieces for its fiftieth anniversary that might be worth hunting down. One in gold, the other in platinum.

For the full seventies playboy look also consider the Vacheron Constantin 1972.
