I think you'd get more wear out of white, but then again, I'm a sucker for blue dial watches....

White goes with everything. But when blue matches something the visual impact is much stronger.
Only Rolex? White. Adding to a Rolex collection? Blue.

I like both but I think I'd go with the white dial.

I like both, but if you don't have a Rolex, yet, I think the white or silver is a bit more "classic". If you want your DJ to look a little sportier, blue or black.

Out the two, blue. Can't put my finger on why, but just not keen on the white stick.

Black and silver my fav for stick.

White with romans looks good.

white or silver dial = formal/elegant look
blue or black dial + sportier look

I own a DJ with white dial and roman numerals. For a sportier look I wear my Sub LV.

I would recomment the Air-king in blue dial option.
