Icon20 SS DateJust: White or Black stick dial?

I posted a thread asking this before, but I need numbers this time. I am getting ready to buy a SS Datejust - fluted bezel, jubilee band, and can't decide between a black stick dial or a white stick dial? Please vote and give thoughts. Pic would be great too. Thanks guys!

I would advise to go with the black dial, however, I am biased towards Rolex black dials as all of my pieces have black dials...

If I were to choose between the 2 mentioned I would go with Black Stick.

Black stick for sure, but it's you who's going to wear it, not us

Even though my new DJ will have a black dial and a Jubilee bracelet, those pictures are giving the Jones I felt at the AD last Friday night.

I tell you I've looked at a lot of DJs, but none grabs me like the stick dial in almost any color.

The only one my AD had with the black dial was a fluted bezel and now I can see just how mine will look with the domed bezel and I'm liking it.

Thanks for the photos.

I saw a guy I was working with earlier this year wearing the black dial version. It was very impressive.

I had been considering a Two Tone or SS GMTII until then.

Now I'm after black dial DJ as described above.

I'm seeing my local AD about one tomorrow.

Good luck with your decision.

Peter

Decide for yourself... That way you have no one but yourself to blame if you end up unhappy.
