Which Daytona-C fits your everyday style better?

White dial or black dial?

I voted black purely because these polls always side with white. It's rarely worth polling Daytona dial colors anymore.

"Either one" has a fair shot though.

I think black is so clean. If I had to to wear everyday, I could easily.

I think either would be equally as good for a daily wearer.

That said, my pick would be the white dial.

I only have a black dial so that’s my choice. The black is very stealth, specially riding in nyc crowded subway.

I have a black one, so that’s my choice. Am wearing today. Honestly, either would be great though.

I think both work well for a daily. I'd pick the white solely due to aesthetic preference.

I own and love both but the black is a better daily wearer IMHO.

White. It’s still sporty and has black in it but you get the panda like dial and it just looks more unique and better contrast. Both are great though.

White is way more sporty (and fun) IMO. Black is more versatile. Obviously sporty, but a little more dressy looking than the white dial.

I rarely dress up, so white dial for me.

I own the white dial and pretty much wear it 4-5 times a week, both at work and on the weekends. The black could definitely be a daily as well.
