For me I like the blue but love the black. Get the one that sings to you and enjoy the journey

One and only = black.
In a duo with another black dial = depends if it has a similar dial.
In a collection with two other black dials = Bluesy.

If you go black, go stainless. The blue is the best two tone watch Rolex makes.

Close, but yes. Can’t go wrong with either though.

You have to go with the one you like best — as you can see, opinions are pretty split, so I’m not sure we can be of any help.

That said, it’s all about the blue for me

Blue is nice but I don't love the blue tone on this model. The two tone black is more versatile and classic IMO

Blue is more flash, if you're into that.

I ended up getting the black one. Only waited nine days so it must not be as popular.

Owned both. It’s about even as both do what they do the most. One is dark, rich and the other bright and loud.

Black for me but it depends on your personal preference and whether you're willing to part with your current watch.

I like the blue more, until I saw it in person. It pops so damn much. It's like it has its own theme music. I'm more low-key.
