Think I'm Going To Get A Dial Swap To Silver With Arabics Kinda Bored
Not an unreasonable cost at £500 and I get to keep the meteorite dial/hands [to fight another day]

I sincerely mean this in the nicest way possible, but
YOU'RE INSANE!!!!! In my eyes, that is the nicest dial / metal combination for ANY Daytona. |

It's no biggie since you can alway change back once you miss the old look.
I reckon that would take about a week, though.

I wouldn't swap that dial in a million years, but I won't tell you what to do. If you feel like a change, then do it. Since you get to keep the original pieces you can always swap back later if you feel like it.

Never been a big fan of roman's but that dial is stunning. As long as it's reversible though, why not?
Good luck, dP

I'd leave it as it is!
The meteorite dial is one of the most beautiful dials out there!

Now here's a twist!!!!!!!!!!! AD just contacted me this very morning a SS daytona awaits my pleasure!
so i guess you can see what i'm thinking , swop the WG meteorite dial out for the silver, then bang it in the SS then again maybe it would seem pointless, i'm thinking it would never seem "right" to my minds eye, maybe just a plain old SS Daytona as a refreshing change would better satisfy that WIS desire for something /anything as a change, it a white dialled version SS but a free dial change to black is not an issue and would make a nice compliment/contrast to the meteorite "as is!" steve

I'd swap it if that's what you want. It's your watch, after all.
