Not sure about the Black dial SS Daytona?
Not to say the white dial isn't as beautiful, one day i'll get that one as well. As for now, it's the Black dial all the way! Here's a shot for those who are on the fence about the Black dial Daytona...

Thank you! Awesome shot!!! Perfect timing for me too, as I've got a Daytona incoming, and I waffled a bit over the dial. However, once I handled the black one, myncoice was made :)
Thanks again for confirming that I made the right choice, for me. Cheers, and enjoy that gorgeous piece! Ross |

Great choice! I also think the black dial is the best!
PS: Stop polishing so much, your bezel numbers are getting pretty rounded |

Handled both. Head said black but heart said white. Only regret is black resells for more but love looking at the white over the black anyday.

Congrats to your black Daytona.
Both the black and white are very nice. I am envious.

Black. I've seen both in person and black was super classy and dressy.
I've seen too many females wearing the white face to make me shy away from white. Both are great choices though |

I've seen a lot of these rounded numbers on here and I'm trying to educate all the polish addicts! The good news is that a new SS bezel doesn't cost the earth, when it comes time for service, ask for a quote on a new one and see if it's worth it. I'm hoping I never have to replace mine, I'm pretty sure the gold ones are +$1k |

Cant put my finger on why but I prefer the white dial so much more. Maybe because there are so many spectacular choices for black dials. The white looks so crisp and clear sort of echos the function of the watch.
