DD 18K YG with White Stick or Champagne Stick?
I got my DD 18K YG last week. It has a Champagne Stick dial on it now, It needs some service like I mentioned in the previous post. My jewler sent me a newer DD with a white face stick dial. I got both watches in front of me now. Feels nice to be holding 30K worth of watches. Anyway, I cant decide on what I like better or what is more classy, white face or champagne. I intally went with the Champagne because it was the watch Tony wore in The sopranos (im a big fan), but the white face is way eaiser to read and the gold hands really make it look sharp (plus im no tony sooprano), by Tuesday I got to send one of them back. Help me decide!

White dial with Romans

Champagne dial with Romans

No sticks and no diamonds.

kcmo · 21 July 2007, 02:32 AM

Why don't you post photos of them side by side so we can get a better idea of how they compare?

I prefer a bit of contrast myself which is why I went with the white roman dial on my DJ (over rhodium roman)....but I admit that the champagne is classy too. You really can't go wrong either way. White is always more legible.

You could always go one way now and in a year or two switch it up

akmpres · 21 July 2007, 02:39 AM

akmpres · 21 July 2007, 02:39 AM

David1971 · 21 July 2007, 02:39 AM

A DD with white dial is nice.

akmpres · 21 July 2007, 02:51 AM

Of course you will love diamonds ...

digdug · 21 July 2007, 03:08 AM

The white is incredible looking!!!!

Arby · 21 July 2007, 03:08 AM

White... without hesitation.

chemist · 21 July 2007, 03:59 AM

Personally, I prefer white dial with roman numerals. That is what I have on my DD. For that kind of money, I would not settle for something I don't like. If you like stick, then should go for white dial.

akmpres · 21 July 2007, 04:41 AM

I like the simpleness of the stick, it has the small roman above the sticks. I think the whites have it so far.

Mort · 21 July 2007, 05:32 AM

White is my vote.

Prince · 21 July 2007, 05:34 AM

Champagne is MY choice.

JJ Irani · 21 July 2007, 05:34 AM

White is my vote too.....but with Romans....something as stunning as this!!

akmpres · 21 July 2007, 05:55 AM

That roman is nice, now you guys and girls are making me second guess the stick dial! My jelwer is going to cut me off!

David1971 · 21 July 2007, 06:45 AM

Roman is nice on a DJ but a DD should have sticks IMHO. I don't like the I at 11, it should be XI.

The white dial with sticks is so beautiful.

-David

mikey · 21 July 2007, 06:53 AM

I think mine is similar to the poll

akmpres · 21 July 2007, 07:17 AM

Good Point David, I never noticed that on the Roman.

kcmo · 21 July 2007, 09:19 AM

Yup, white roman! If you have to do sticks, do WHITE

In that configuration, between those two choices, I vote for the classic champange dial.

ROLEXAHOLIC · 21 July 2007, 10:22 AM

Go Classic Champagne Dial all the way !!!!!

ssyachtmaster6512 · 21 July 2007, 10:32 AM

White with sticks. BTW, my TTDJ (Ladies) has the luminor sticks and I just love them. I have had a Champagne Dial with Gold and it is nearly impossible to read in certain lighting.

chemist · 21 July 2007, 10:45 AM

Correction: I don't have a white dial on my DD. I do love white dial with romans.

GORGEOUS DD chemist

If I had that on my wrist I'd have a tough time taking it off! Plat I assume? I know the WG can be had with the same dial (though it's harder to get).

Andad · 21 July 2007, 12:48 PM

With fluted bezel.
