I couldn't decide either!

Puffy · 5 September 2012, 09:52 PM

white..

kh1970 · 5 September 2012, 10:46 PM

Black

Maxx · 6 September 2012, 02:13 AM

Love the contrast on the black dial - I would choose black.

EdChoi · 6 September 2012, 03:09 AM

Have both, white does not photograph as well as black does.

Had black first, then white. My other watches are all black faced so that adds some bias, but white dial daytona is so clean and nice in person.

Sent from my Galaxy s3.

Goodwill63 · 6 September 2012, 03:43 AM

White! Timeless and classic.

happydayjames · 6 September 2012, 07:28 AM

Thanks.... I am just more confused... Guess I need to try to find somewhere to put it on my wrist and go from there

rodrob59 · 6 September 2012, 11:49 AM

The Daytona and Exp II are the two SS models that I feel look better with a white face. I also think the Daytona looks better in two-tone than SS or even all gold.

sig-x · 6 September 2012, 12:23 PM

Black for me.:)

kcmo · 6 September 2012, 12:24 PM

That dial is a killer!

Only in Europe can one have that dial installed on an SS Daytona... anywhere else you need really good connections.

ChrashM · 7 September 2012, 11:31 AM

When my AD told me most of their customers request white, my preference was confirmed. Black.

guyrolex · 7 September 2012, 11:34 AM

I absolutely love my white dial and would never trade for black- and two guys I know with black dial Daytonas are seriously considering selling/traing their blacks for white

RX0-Unicorn · 7 September 2012, 11:39 AM

In reality, White dial is the best for SS Daytona. I had seen the exact black SS Dial in white gold. However, the white dial was never available in any other metal.

I wonder if that make the white SS Daytona one of the most sorted item once 116520 discontinued

YoyoGift8 · 7 September 2012, 11:41 AM

i will go for white...

watchwatcher · 7 September 2012, 11:58 AM

White. Much easier to read, in my opinion. That is, if course, if telling the time is a consideration...

rolexfan168 · 9 September 2012, 01:14 AM

black!

z32turbo · 9 September 2012, 01:27 AM

I prefer the white as it's easier to read, better contrast, and not any other white dials in my collection.

You can have it for your average SS Daytona in Europe?

I might check that out..

Are there other Dials that are available in Europe?

jizeal · 9 September 2012, 08:06 AM

After owning both I say get the white and follow this link for my reasoning.

Yg has a white dial. It's sexy!

GEO_79 · 9 September 2012, 11:35 AM

As said, you can.... IF you have the right connections; mostly meaning you've spent a lot of money at the AD's during the years and can get your way due to that.

Myself don't have those connections since although I've bought many Rolex watches during the years, they were just "standard" ones (not the expensive ones made of gold and set with gemstones etc.).
