A quick dial colour question

There are lots of dial options with some models, with some there are only two options, sometimes there isn't a choice.....

I have read that in certain parts of the world differing dial colours are favoured above others.....specifically with the SS Daytona.....and maybe the Explorer II

The model I am keen to know about for personal reasons (I have one coming very soon) is the Explorer II....available as we know in either black or white (much the same as the SS Daytona)

I like both, they are very similar and yet very different at the same time....to be honest if the one I have coming (it's pre-loved) had been the opposite of what it is I would have been just as keen to take it.

My questions are which colour appears more popular and where?

As an aside I would be very keen to know which colour dial is produced in the largest quantity, not sure if that info will be available but I have to ask just in case........

As a further aside, lots of folk switch bezels here....has anyone managed to get a black and a white dial for an Explorer II and alternate between them?......obviously not a DIY process but never the less it could be done pretty quickly by your friendly watchmaker a couple of times a year if you so wished and had the dials......
