Santos white Vs blue
Hi all,
Just wanted to gather some opinions on the Santos Large - White Vs blue? I'm hoping to pick one up but love both. Any key points to consider? I keep my watches for a few years usually does one hold better value than the other? If so why? (The latter does not inform/enforce my decision before the investment police banish me) Pics would be much appreciated too :) Sent from my SM-F926B using Tapatalk |

I have the medium, and I think white is perfect. It goes with everything, is classy, very easy to read, and looks fantastic with various straps.

I like that the white has the signature at 7. Minor, but I think it's a neat touch. Just wish the white had lumed hands.

IDK about value retention over any real rime period, but the king fu is strong with the white

I debated this and went with white. (My dad has blue though). Blue is nice but is a very dark blue that almost looks black, and the numerals/hands don’t really pop so it just looks very dark.

I tried on both at the Cartier in SF, blue...its truly hard to see the dial and numbers on the dial. The white dial truly classic and clean with the white dial and black numerals.
I bought the white dial. |

I like both but would buy the white dial first. Clean and classic looks and works with everything.

White for its legibility and crisp clean look
