Assuming that you have other black dialed watches, I like the variety that the blue dial would give you. Also have you seen that shade of blue. It's just beautiful, especially the way it seems to change from light to dark to almost black depending on the lighting. In case you cannot tell, I really have been considering adding one to my collection as well. Good luck with your choice.

Blue. Because it looks good with black and brown. Also can be dressed down with jeans and up with a suit.

I went with this one. It is dark, but has a Grey brightness in bright light. The Roman numerals really add some class too it, and it had enough lume to see at night.

Black stick did nothing for me at all. So I will happily recommend blue or Grey. Roman, most likely.

I chose blue with Romans. The blue with sticks is a little darker. I don't have many watches and thought the blue went with everything.

Blue is versatile and kind of has a bit of "pop"

If you don't already have a black faced watch, I would go with black. If you do already own another black one I'd suggest blue (I went with blue myself).
The black is more formal looking I think, but the blue is a much more interesting color |

Charles' blue stick DJ2 is so beautiful. Black, I'm sure, is also nice but this blue is very addicting and it grabs your attention.
