Keep them both! You have a theme going there. Get a white Daytona next.

White looks good... Add a few other pieces if you need color. Daytona, Sub and GMT...

White theme for the next is a novel idea, otherwise I'd get a blue dial on the DJ.

I could see flipping the white Explorer II for a black one (or just doing a dial swap).

I've heard the white dial is more difficult to read than black especially in high light conditions. With that said, I need to add a white dial to my collection. I'm thinking a platinum yachtmaster may be the appropriate compromise. Your watches look great! Congrats

Let it be!!! I like light dials for dressier and dark for rowdier occasions.

I had a polar then got a white dial Daytona. The polar was getting no wrist time and had no sentimental value so I sold it and got a black dial watch - Speedy Pro. I am much happier and now need a splash of color. Maybe a blue dial YM.

Most of us have it the other way around, I am only looking to add a white for my next piece.
