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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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 |

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

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

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.).
