Poll: Black or White Dial Daytona?

[jholbrook]

Alright, time to ask and answer the age old question that's been asked 1000 times, but never here on the R-L-X English Forum. :D

Given the choice, which version of the stainless Daytona would you take - white or black dial?

Old question - my old answer -

I prefer black colored watch dials. That applies also to the Daytona. ;)

[jholbrook]

I've owned multiple examples of each version and the black dial has just never grabed me the way the white dial version has.

Don't get me wrong - the Daytona is a great watch no matter the dial color. But Rolex makes so many great black dial watches and relatively few white dial watches...even if I were split down the middle on which I prefered, I'd go white for this very reason.

Mike, you have a nice collection there, the white 6263 with red daytona looks the most beautiful in my eyes. That is my exit watch, one day, hopefully... and then I will never buy another Rolex... ;-) Cheers, Boris

[mike 1675]

If it's a "one or the other"---white. :gut:

Most of my watches have black dials, but I think the Daytona looks better with the white dial.

[TR-DK]

Black and brown for me :gut:

[Boris_Koch]

I find it more classy and more legible.

[Hannes]

Black or white - I don´t know :grb:

Option 3: get both (and match to your respective gear) ;)

Should you have to decide: white

[artbroker]

my choice for the Daytona is black

[jholbrook]

That's my favorite version of the all-gold Daytona. Niiiice.

[Jason Spring]

I m crazy about the black dial, it looks like a red sub but in chronograph

[AndreasL]

My favorite is the white one. :gut:

@ Mike: :verneig: One would be fine for me :D

[orange]

absolutly JUST white and just of a 16520.... soooo beautiful !

[steve73]

116520 only in black
white is good for the box, but not for the wrist......

[ducsudi]

Zenith movement always white. :gut:

Rolex movement is black my first choice.

[jholbrook]

I guess we can declare that white is the winner, by a somewhat narrow margin. :D
