silver:

appeals to me the most as it looks 'clean' and elegant
i already have 2 black dialed watches
however, my skin tone is very pale and somehow i think it does not look good on me.

black:

most of my friends say black looks nicer
black can be worn with more casual clothes which i tend to prefer
does not appeal to me as much as the silver one

blue:

does not appeal to me at all
i prefer the greyish-blue of the nautilus 5711 than ap

as you can see i'm in quite a quandary between the black and the silver. can someone help?

My pick would be blue.

cdnyc · 12 November 2013, 02:21 AM

I went white when I was in your quandary.

subtona · 12 November 2013, 02:29 AM

Silver 400
Or
15202:)

Skug · 12 November 2013, 02:39 AM

White, no doubt!

randyyeap · 12 November 2013, 02:40 AM

Blue is sick

00pumpkin · 12 November 2013, 04:49 AM

Id go for the silver/white.

Andrés G · 12 November 2013, 05:01 AM

Looks like you prefer the white one. Go for it!

s14roller · 12 November 2013, 05:45 AM

Of the three, I still like the blue...

But of the 2, I'm leaning toward black. I mostly have black dial watches also, just seem to prefer them.

White looks great on my wrist and I'm looking down at it. However, when I take a look in the mirror to see how it looks against my body, I usually find the white dial to be a bit washed out.

bayerische · 12 November 2013, 05:54 AM

Saying that I also love my white dialed ROC.

ELITEVIDEOGAMES · 12 November 2013, 07:05 AM

White/Silver!

p_mcgee · 12 November 2013, 07:40 AM

Silver for me

AK797 · 12 November 2013, 07:50 AM

400 - silver
300 - black
5711 - blue

texex91 · 12 November 2013, 08:12 AM

Silver. Dress up or down.

kkchome · 12 November 2013, 10:17 AM

I went through the same quandary recently and went with the silver face. I'd say to go with your gut and try not to over analyse it.

Mbbgysam · 12 November 2013, 10:21 AM

I prefer the darker dials. I have the black 15400, but would be equally happy with the blue dial.

simongpaez · 12 November 2013, 11:11 AM

I love black but based on your comments you like silver better, just go with what you like, you are the one wearing ;)

improviz · 12 November 2013, 11:12 AM

Silver/white!

BlueRoyaloak · 12 November 2013, 11:16 AM

Demonoid · 12 November 2013, 12:02 PM

Blue

benlee · 12 November 2013, 12:59 PM

Since you don't like the blue dial, it's a toss up between black and silver. Either will be fine. I like the silver dial for the inter-play with surrounding light and reflective nature but also the black dial for the sharp look.

Mine is a white / silver dial though.

redsubby · 12 November 2013, 01:02 PM

Bought the white/silver, twice.

QueueCumber · 12 November 2013, 01:21 PM

Hairdude1 · 12 November 2013, 03:15 PM

DreambreaX · 12 November 2013, 06:52 PM

silver

dannyjak · 12 November 2013, 09:32 PM

Blue all the way

Monte Cristo · 12 November 2013, 10:01 PM

Easy - Go for the white 15400 so then you can add the blue 5711 later

Dcmk · 12 November 2013, 10:21 PM

Blue is the color of royal oak

Cru Jones · 13 November 2013, 12:13 AM

i think the white/silver photographs the best, but, to my eyes, the blue looks the best in real life. that being said, it seems like you want the white/silver, so, go for it.
