In which collection would you most welcome a (re)introduction of a white dial?

I have a thing for white dials. I love them. I own or have owned white dials in Cartier, Omega, and GS. I am currently waiting for a retail 226570 in, you guessed it, a white dial.

Now Rolex makes or has produced white dials in many of it’s collections. My question is, in which collection would you most welcome the introduction or reintroduction of a white dial?

I’d be interested in a white dial Explorer in titanium.

BLRO would look good with a white dial.

The meteorite BLRO and the Tudor GMT with the opaline dial both look awesome, so a normal steel one with white would look very sharp!

White Sub/SD43 would look great. Similar to the white Omega SMP300

Guaranteed Rolex will do this next. Meteorite dial as they always push on precious metal first, then on Tudor and then on their own models.

I like the mockups I've seen of the Exp 1 with white dial.

After the Silver Dial GMT saga that came to a disappointing end after 4 years...
(you can find it in the Vintage section)

I would say the Rolex GMT is due for a White Dial.

A triple white would be a delight.

GMT-Master III (yes it's time!)
Fashioned in Platinum.
Mated with a matte white dial.
And a Pt bezel with white/black ceramic 24hr insert.

What a 75th Anniversary model for 2025!

I’m with you, love white dials as well. Definitely the Explorer I. After that, GMT.

Me too. With black hands and lumed markers like the polar.

Thought I’d be the only one. I loved the Milgauss in white and really think the AK would pop with a green accents. Of course, the yellow would probably have to go against a white dial.

Would love to see the eggshell white from the OP 39 again.
