I love the rise gold and white dial. I would prefer it on a brown strap, as I tend to wear brown shoes, belt more often.

Ceramic bezel one. Killer combo plus more modern looking. But, what happened to the AP shopping???

Champagne with brown seems more classic

YG champagne with black subdials on the brown gator for a warmer, more versatile and classic feel. Plus, with two other white dials in the "family", I don't think I would want to add an ivory one. Last, I just think that RG has too much contrast between its parts. Good luck with the choice!

I love that 116515 RG and ivory dial, and strap being black also matches this colour combo perfectly.

RG for me Gerardo.
It's a beauty in that combination and I have never seen one on a wrist.

Tough one but I think RG just edges it by a whisker.

Both are very nice though neither would be my first choice in precious metal Daytona. With that well-intended disclosure out of the way, I also just never warmed up to the RG, though I must admit your provided photo is a stunning example.

I'm sure my post was of little assitance to you, but it was fun to see to beautiful Daytonas that unfortunately will never grace my wrist.
