Just looked at both side by side and the black dial looks nicer to me. Are you going with a smooth or fluted bezel?

Looking at the Fluted. I love both. Also note it will only be a smart suit watch. I live in my SubC Hulk.

I would be more inclined to choose the black dial if I was going to be wearing it to work.

I guess it depends on what's in your collection already. If you have all black or dark dials then obviously I'd go for the white.

Of those two I would vote black every time. Looks much nicer to me. The white looks a bit washed out in my opinion - apologies to white face owners!.

I vote for white. A nice change up to the usual black dial.

Depending on your collection, my favorite is blue!
