i have the wg daytona with the slate face/arabic which is exactly like the blue. love the numbers. mine tends to spark a lot of conversations because many people don't immediately recognize it as a rolex - as the face and croc strap don't match the image most people have of the brand. i've only ever seen that blue face on the YG daytona, but the TT is pretty cool too. blue gets my vote.

Blue - love the arabic dial.

But you won't go wrong with either one - they both great pieces.

Black if u wish to be seen "noticed" wearing a DAYTONA

Blue for young and trendy

IMO Black - a lasting and classic look dial that can stand test of time forever and ever and ever....

Blue/blue subdials with Arabic hour markers..what a unique and great looking watch! The Black/Gold combo looks best on the GMT...just my opinion.

Blue all the way for me, tried the beauty on recently and if were not for the close to £9000 pricetag, I would have walked away with it there and then!

The black with gold subdials is timeless, the blue one, well I think it will age very quickly, the blue for me as well is not a dignified blue, it looks cheap

It is your hard earned money and your choice. I vote for Black. The Blue dial is very busy. Arabic numerals, white print, red print, white hands, red hands... too much.

Black looks cleaner.
