Simple pole guys.....

How do you like your SS Daytona's??

Black or White dial??

Gerardus · 26 March 2011, 01:15 AM

100% whiteeeeeeeee

GolfPunk · 26 March 2011, 01:44 AM

1000% Black!!!

horseco · 26 March 2011, 01:47 AM

white, makes the watch POP! plus I feel it makes the watch look larger...

dddrees · 26 March 2011, 01:53 AM

Either is great, however I chose white.

dalip · 26 March 2011, 01:53 AM

Both...well black is winning but only because I just had it installed...

(this is such a frequently recurring question!)...have to answer though :)

johnbeth · 26 March 2011, 01:54 AM

Dalip has gone to the dark side and will never go back!

johnbeth · 26 March 2011, 01:55 AM

I voted black..

rolexertion · 26 March 2011, 01:55 AM

My vote is neither. There are several dials from the wg Daytona that I prefer to either.

rr-nyc · 26 March 2011, 01:59 AM

Dr. Robert · 26 March 2011, 02:26 AM

bellvederecar · 26 March 2011, 03:05 AM

black

RJC · 26 March 2011, 03:22 AM

It's certainly a close call!!!

Chipmunk · 26 March 2011, 03:25 AM

Probably black or white.

GolfPunk · 26 March 2011, 03:36 AM

12 months ago I sense that white was more popular in the western world and in asia the black was more popular. I now sense this last couple of months that black is more popular everywhere.

drefrank · 26 March 2011, 06:45 AM

Both look good. I went with white as I thought it was easier to read.

Hodog16 · 26 March 2011, 07:22 AM

A few years ago I preferred the black dial. Now I definitely prefer the white dial.

vintagewaferthin · 22 May 2012, 03:35 AM

definatly black, in fact i am currently in a toss between buying a tag carrera or a black daytona. after seeing the beautiful pics on the web and here i am leaning towards the daytona more and more.

grimjim · 22 May 2012, 04:16 AM

I have the black which i think looks better ,although its hard to read the time in some light.I have know idea how racing car driver are suposed to read it while theyre driving .

TSW · 22 May 2012, 04:17 AM
