Got to be champagne for me. Expect to pay a premium over the equivalent black dialed piece.

I had a 18238 and ended up selling it for a variety of reasons. The biggest reason was I couldn't read the time very easy. It had a Silver Tapestry dial and with the gold hands it was very hard for my 55 year old eyes to see what time it was. I would go with the black dial knowing what I know now because of that fact.
