Easy for me. I don't care for yellow gold on a man's watch. The white gold is the way to go! Enjoy!

Ok. I'll throw that into the mix too as an option. The black and yg do look great together.

If you had another YG piece in your collection, I would say Smurf for a little variety. However, given your collection, I'll go with one of my all-time favorites...the YG.

Love the flat blue dial on the WG Sub. I think that would be my choice.

YG and blue sunburst dial, perfect combo. Would have been a more difficult choice if the WG had the same dial.

Great collection! Either would fit in nicely and both are special. I prefer the 116618LB.

I'm not a huge WG fan but the smurf has grown on me, a lot. For me I would pick the TT blusey, the smurf or the yg ln. Out of your two choices I would take the smurf.
