Objection Jocke. I prefer the black, always BLACK ! A sports watch must have contrast on the dial, to read from distance and under all conditions.

Rolex did well with this model.

Love the white dial with black hands and indices; that's enough contrast their IMHO.

Great pics as always....

It definitely looks great for a sports watch Jocke but the best looking white dial rolex IMHO is the SS daytona but that's just me !

You got it right Jocke, that dial is so crisp & the contrast of the red 24hr hand is just superb.

Great pic btw

Have to agree with Steelinox, that White-Faced GMT is AWSOME! I wish they made it now!

The white dial daytona is arguably more attractive, but I can't stand a watch that doesn't have a date window. I also really like the 24 hr. hand.

As I lay me down to sleep, I wish that you would bring me a Pan Am to keep. If I'm bad, you still have to deliver, just bring that Sub so I can float down river.
