as the title says....I ordered meteorite, not sure if i should have gotten black instead?

Zero080RD · 6 November 2007, 03:54 PM

I like all of them but I'm partial to the one I have which is the silver/white ;)

marshallr47 · 6 November 2007, 03:57 PM

White is a classic.

That Meteorite is possibly one of the most beautiful dials in the whole wide world!!!

x2 - I voted for the Meteorite, it's just GORGEOUS!

Tombstone · 6 November 2007, 04:53 PM

I agree JJ it is one of the most beautiful dials in the world.

On a side note I was called a "poof ta" (not sure on the spelling) yes I know what it means. Guess the guy was pissed off he had to pay me the money he owed me.

shoppy · 6 November 2007, 05:39 PM

I like all theree choices, I also like the black mother of pearl. But if you can not decide, then have a spare dials. I intend to put the silver dial in to a SS daytona for my younger brother graduation gift.

worktolivelife · 6 November 2007, 05:40 PM

The meteorite dial has a surface fire like diamonds when the light reflects of the polished fractions of the stone combined with the polished WG romans a beautiful visual and unique look unlike any other!. That said i'm considering getting a dial change done when serviced to the silver, which i like also, I like the more Daytonaesque look, arabics and lume and almost vintage patina of the dial when combined with the warm hues of the white gold . A last note NO PIC!!!! i have seen, has ever!! conveyed The Beauty of the meteorite dial, and if you haven't actually had one in front of you ,then feel you are really not qualified to even comment objectively!. but can almost guarantee you if pics are enough to impress the individual " YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPPOINTED WHEN ITS ON YOUR WRIST"

All 3 are awesome. My personal preference is black.

SPACE-DWELLER · 6 November 2007, 06:45 PM

Sorry, but I don't like the Meteorite dial, at all, and the black one has simply TOO much "red" on it.

But I really LOVE the "Silver" dial, and the red writing on it plus the red hands is perfect!

So my vote goes to the SILVER DIAL!

Jimbits76 · 6 November 2007, 07:43 PM

I love that meteorite dial...second only to Bluesy in my opinion!!!!

Thani · 6 November 2007, 08:04 PM

i love them all.. but my all time favourite is the metiorite

walds11 · 6 November 2007, 08:20 PM

Silver dial!!! Love the splash of red.

Chris B · 6 November 2007, 08:24 PM

That meteorite dial is out of this world

Atomant · 6 November 2007, 10:55 PM

I'd go for the meteorite.

MAXI DIAL · 6 November 2007, 11:33 PM

I would like the meteorite face with Arabic numbers....

I've got to agree with that - though MOP is still my personal choice

Ronnie Rolex · 7 November 2007, 02:03 AM

Meteorite for me. How much does the meteorite cost? Is it more than the white and black?

puffnmo · 7 November 2007, 02:10 AM

For me it's meteorite. It is a beautiful and rare material, which sets it apart. Also it has a different look from all other Rollie's. A black or white dial you can get any day, any time anywhere.
But the meteorite stands out for it's beauty. JMO. Larry.

Hicks · 7 November 2007, 02:13 AM

I like the silver dial best. I agree with Bo about the black dial, there's just too much red.

Now, for the meteorite dial, I absolutely love the look and the Roman numerals are okay, but I don't think it blends well with the look of the rest of the watch, which is more on the sporty side.

supra2nv · 7 November 2007, 11:57 AM

thanks for your comments all. I think I will stick with the meteorite..even my wife told me to stick with it, something unique in my collection!

steve-o · 7 November 2007, 12:49 PM

Meteorite!!!!!!

To have watch face not of this world!!!! Perfection.

I wish I'd known about that model when I bought my TT YM.

Will wonders never cease. I finally agree with JJ about something.

The meteorite is the only Daytona I would ever consider. It's a stunning watch, especially on the black leather strap.

yemenmocha · 7 November 2007, 02:44 PM

Meteorite is stunning and less common.

I should have considered it or MOP for my TT.

BTW, where did you get those nice pics? Did the source have one for the black MOP?

Thanks

You can't buy a TT or SS with the meteorite face so you didn't miss anything by not considering it. That's the enticement of the WG models, better dials in my view.

mike · 7 November 2007, 10:46 PM

No question--meteorite.
