WG day date

Considering this model but struggling with which dial. Ombré, silver, green or meteorite?

Meteorite on the WG looks the best IMO

Yeah, second that.

However, it would literally be a toss up for me at this point, so don't ask which one.

I personally think the blue ombre looks best, with meteorite and green following.

Black with Baguette is also very nice and under the radar

I was super excited about these new dials in 36 until I realized there were no minute hashmarks. I guess not the end of the world but I just find it odd.

Same here. Still can't tell if I like it or not. The dial itself is beautiful but I can't help but wonder if it'd be better with the hashmarks

I really like the ombré but love my 2021 blue dial DD40. Less intense (IMHO) for my stealth piece.

I second that. I own the same reference and the dial combination.

Meteorite is amazing. Silver is too boring in person and discontinued

I’m starting to like the slate. The stick markers and lume are pretty understated.

If you can get one, the meteorite dial is the way to go.
