Back from Jackroad...
As I replied to one forum member a few days ago saying I will visit Jackroad every time I come to Japan, here is what comes back with me today. Amazing price that I can't resist! :-)

Thank you guys...
Its strange that the sales lady told me Japanese prefer black face over white but customers from Europe or US like white better.

Great score!!! I noticed in Singapore the white is always in stock and assumed already what was conveyed to you in Japan.

Additionally to the Explorer Polar the Daytona white is not a huge seller here either when compared to the black dial.

I actually live in California and Exp2 are available both white and black in almost everywhere, so I didn't know the color preference out there (thought 50/50).
Exp2 is the only white face I would get, Daytona I prefer black as most people.
