I opted for silver dial. I'm not a fan of the flat white look on the white dial 15300, but the silver really shines on the 15400, the way it plays with light is fantastic and details show.

Blue is nice, but if I were to really want blue, I would just save a bit more for a 15202, which in my opinion, has a nicer blue.

Black is still nice though, haha, I can't hate on any of them!

A reason why I chose silver, besides the fact my wife liked it the most.... I have also noticed that the silver can actually take on different shades depending on the lighting, going from a white to almost gold color...

Regardless of whatever color you choose, its a really special watch.

Used to own a white 15300, currently selling a black 15400, incoming 15202 in the only color available (and best looking!) blue.

So... blue of course

Get ready to pay or wait a bit more for blue, but it's totally worth it.

This, depending on your current collection.

Why does the forum make me wait 55 seconds before posting from my last post!

I say white or blue. Blue is harder to get a hold of and for that reason you will pay a premium.

Torn between black and blue really. Also love white but realistically I know it's between the two.

I'm loving all the input and perspectives from everyone! And of course the amazing drool worthy photos. Thank you all for the contributions :)

Blue is the best but most expensive on the user market.

blue > silver > black

Black! Dresses up or down really well. I found the blue a kind of blah color in average light.
