You keep Diamond status the year you earn it and the following year, so meeting $40K spend early in the first year offers the most benefits. The free night awards expire in 12 months, so have limited shelf life. I don't have a Hilton stay planned next year, so won't get the Reserve card until late 2103.
2x browser trick can still net 4 weekend nights with 5k spend in 4 months. Spend an additional $37,500 on one of the cards and get Diamond status.
