The first thing one notices when putting this watch on the wrist is the weight. The heaviness of the platinum case is striking for a watch that is just 33 mm in diameter. The second thing you notice is the striking beauty of the 48 Top Wesselton baguette diamonds on the bezel. For such a price, one can feel and see the value of such a beautiful reference that was only in the line for a few years. The rarity is secondary to the absolute brilliance of the diamond bezel, simplicity of the dial, and classic Calatrava design of the case.
