WG sky-dwellers: "Polar" vs "Panda" >>>
Hi all,
here are some comparison photos of the WG sky-dwellers. The "polar" one (white dial) is mine and the "panda" (black dial/white ring) is AD's ... at least for now ;-) |

Polar on bracelet is just perfect.

I agree. I like it better than the black face. The red arrow really pops on that creamy dial.

I like the black one better, the white one is nice but I just never liked the mixture of Roman and Arabic Numbers on the same dial.....

I prefer the white polar dial and this watch needs the bracelet imho as the fluted bezel becomes pretty overpowering without it.

I actually like the Arabic numeral model. Matches the inner ring. Just wish it was on bracelet.

I also had this concern before purchasing the watch. I agree that the Roman/Arabic mixture doesn't look good in magnified internet pictures ... but when I examined the watch in person it was a non-issue, |

Rolex offers the option to put the black dial on the WG bracelet (326939) version if you buy via boutique.
