Glossy or matte >

What would you choose if Rolex offered the opportunity to choose between two different dials of the new black Rolex Submariner 116610LN. The well known (current) glossy or a matte dial version like the one on the DeepSea.

Sounds like a formula for a 16800.

One of the prettiest black dials I've seen is on the Breitling Superocean Heritage. It's got a nice radial satin sheen to it.
