New 41mm RO... Blue, black or white?

Which dial colour do you reckon is the one to go for?
Cheers.

I wonder how the blue on the 15400 compares to the blue on the 15300 and 15202?

I owned both at one time, the blue on the 15400 is almost identical as the blue on the 15300.

I havent seen the black 15400 so cant comment

The silver on the 15400 is very different to the silver on the 15300 which is much closer to pure white. I actually preferred the 15300 silver.

Thanks for the input!

Now where to find a minty white or blue 15300? Looks like that ship left 6 months ago...

Blue is beautiful in the display case at the store, but for a RO that I plan on wearing all the time, silver. I'll hold out for a blue Nautilus.

I would go for black/white for the 15400. For me, blue is for the jumbo.

White is my favorite, but you really can't go wrong with any of them.

What's your favorite?

I hate to sound like a broken record, but it depends on what your collection currently consists of. For me, having a white face VC on the way, I would go for the blue dial, it would pop with the 15400 in a way that no other piece does.

But I don't think you can go wrong with white/silver as well.

I normally prefer white dials...

All of Paul's pics confirm it - white/silver wins for me!
