Favourite SS White Dial Model

Couldn't find a poll, but interested to know which is the forum's favourite SS white dial model currently available new from AD.

DJ has too many configurations, so a catch all 36 or 41.

Hard to say exactly what is available as the AD's tend to vary a little. Personally my favorite white dial models are Daytona (obv) & the Explorer 2 in polar white but neither are readily available. If you're into the SS sports models, the Milgauss looks great on white dial but personally I couldn't look past the z-blue, it's mesmerizing.

Sky-dweller looks awesome on white dial and the OP39 is touch of class too.

Exp II. At least the hands are legible unlike the Daytona which fa, far fewer people would want were it readily available.

For me, it’s a toss up between the 16520 and the 16570.

♛- Yet to be determined, but a white 16520 is on the short list. (I believe that I'll be able to read it better than my old 116520)

Some awesome pics above, let's see some more...

5 digit refs very nice, but excluded as not available new, likewise with the Milgauss above. DD also not available in SS.

Current total votes is 136. Daytona currently in the lead comfortably which isn't surprising. Closely followed by the Exp2, which again is no surprise. Interestingly, the OP39 has the third spot, ahead of both DJ's and the Sky Dweller.

D500 but a new white EXP1 would look great as predicted most years.

From your choices, I love the Daytona
Overall the omega is a nicer dial to me!

DJ 36 white dial with Roman numerals. But I'm biased. I just got it last week as my first Rolex.

I completely glanced over the SS requirement. +1 more for the Daytona
