After I sell my Breitling Bentley GT, I would like to replace with another white dial Rolex. Currently I'm torn between ExpII 42mm polar and the SS Daytona white dial. I've also entertained the thought of TT Daytona since it's not much more money than the SS. I can only pick one for now. What would you do? What's your favorite modern white dial Rolex sports model? Thanks in advance for everyone's input and opinions.

daytona its a real classic and it looks stunning on the wrist the exlorer 2 is nice but you will realize the pcls on daytona plus dial make the daytona not just a dress watch but a watch of every occassion .

Both Exp and Daytona are not my favorite but given the choice between them I would choose a TT Daytona. The only favorite white dial for me is on a 36mm YG DD. Plat/SS YM dial is silvery grey not white so that doesn't count

WhatTheDeuce · 6 March 2013, 12:24 PM

The Explorer II.

While not technically white, I also like the Yachtmaster.

Daytona

Explorer II

Personally, I like the older panda dialed Daytonas compared to the white dial version they are offering today. The Daytona has no date which might be a set back if you are looking for a great all purpose sports watch. This obviously brings me to my endorsement of the white dial Explorer II. It's not like the Daytona is a poor choice in any regard but if we are talking white dial sports Rolex, there is only one true contender in the lineup at this time.

Explorer II without a doubt! In fact, it's my favourite Rolex.

I know mine's black, but I am posting it anyway.

I would go with a 16570. Definetly my favourite Rolex with a white dial :thumbup:

jlc123 · 6 March 2013, 02:24 PM

I have to say, my current favorite Rolex white dial is on the Air King. But, if I were you I'd go for the Daytona.

Exp2 would be my next white dial, but I still love my
