I prefer the beautiful white and refreshing face of the white SS Daytona. The black looks good too....but if I had an option....WHITE would be it!!

I will definitely go with SS Daytona with whiye face.
But frankly speaking if I have to purchase a SS Rolex I would niether go for white or black face SS daytona I will go for Rolex Seadweller as in my opinion Daytona looks more like dress watch as having so many polished surfaces but Seadweller is a perfect sports watch.

Tough question. I like them both, but I'd have to go with the white just for the different color dial

Well, I see your point. I don't like the inner Rolex rim printing either
But if you consider it Louis Vuitton (I again see your point ) then you basically should start considering ALL current Rolex watches as Louis Vuittons, since the inner Rolex is now being engraved on all of them.

I have yet to see the inner RolexRolexRolex engraving in person. However I would say that while I prefer the white face, if my AD called me and told me tey had a black dial daytona for MSRP, I'd buy it, then tell them to keep me on the list for a white dial. Nothing wrong with both

Why not just buy THIS one? Where the 16610 LV is known as the "Kermit", this one is know as the "Harlekin"

I have always liked black over white dials, the white Milgauss looks good.

I like the white face better. I just stands out imo while the black face is more laid back.
