Visited my AD today and they happen to have the new Santos Dumont Rewind that was allocated for a customer.

The box is nice and so is this platinum carnelian stone dial beauty.

Which one do you prefer: YG Skeleton or Pt Rewind?

Key Points from the Discussion

The yellow gold Skeleton model features a ceramic bezel, which is perceived as more scratch-resistant and practical compared to the highly polished bezel of the Rewind, which may be prone to scratches.
The Skeleton model is described as significantly more artistic, fascinating, and intriguing, making it a highly desirable piece for collectors.
For those interested in detailed macro shots of the Skeleton, Clueless_Collector has previously posted them on the forum, offering a closer look at its intricate design.

Personally,

the Rewind, but I totally get the appeal of the other. Thanks for the image, cheers, Filip

It is hard to choose, both are good 👍🏻

Here is a better picture of the skeleton and I like the ceramic bezel instead of the shiny one on the Rewind, which will be a scratch magnet.

I think skeleton is more desirable than the Rewind.
