The Platinum Card from American Express allows you to save as you spend, earning you a Membership Rewards® point for every £1 you spend on your Card. Your points can be used to pay for almost any item on your Card Statement – such as a top-end timepiece – and they never expire, so you can save them up and spend them when the time is right.
What's more, The Platinum Card also offers over 30 travel and lifestyle benefits, including airport lounge access, worldwide travel insurance, as well as a 24/7 Concierge service that can book you dinner after a day of watch shopping, or an action-packed holiday away.
