I’ll go with blue dial

It’s mesmerising. And this is one of the hardest picks because the new meteorite is incredibly special too

Incredibly difficult pick. I do think, however, that the unique nature of the meteorite dial shall prevail.

Either but just don’t like the smooth bezel.

Agreed, not a buyer until they go ceramic bezel on these.

Blue in that configuration. Meteorite if we’re talking ceramic/oyster flex.

I'd go blue, but I am not mad at that WG meteorite at all. Win-win comparison here.

Obviously both are amazing but the WG & Blue is just a hitter! I love mine, looks so good on the wrist.

Meteorite. There's something very special about wearing a piece of cosmic rock on your wrist that's older than our planet. Besides, it's unique and looks awesome.

What's the price differential?

Blue if cost not a factor.

The meteorite is about $4K more than the blue in retail pricing.
