Day-Date 118239: Dials

Apparently, white (stick) is no longer an option for this reference on current Day-Dates. Which of these four do YOU like best for this reference on a President bracelet?.

Stick is for a sportier watch.

Roman numeral - depends on your "look" of u to with white or black.

The DD is a very classy watch IMO and deserves a classy dial. Therefore, it has to be Romans at least. As for dial color, I prefer white. I agree the stick dial is better suited for a sports model.

I would prefer either of the roman dials. The white roman would be far more legible in low lighting conditions but the rhodium is sweet.

The bright white makes the romans pop off the dial.
