I own a blue one, so I'm certainly biaised. White is still very nice, but I'm having trouble with the argument that white indices on white dial is more legible than white on blue.

Dial preference are also influenced by the state (or future state) of your collection: if I already had lets'say a blue dial DJ, I would maybe be more drawn to a white dial SkyD

I would love the white on a Jubilee at some point. My favourite Skydweller configuration.

Your white version and with the oyster is awesome and I would actually buy and wear that one. Blue on jubilee not so much.

White dial is nice. And legibility is key.

I have the white roman DJ41 with Oyster bracelet; I love the white for the legibility and crisp look. However, for the Sky-D I'd go blue dial. Agree on the Oyster bracelet.

Is the white on the stainless the same as my TT? In some lighting my disk has a texture about it. Almost like clouds or something. Than sometimes it also looks more bone colored and even silver from certain angles. It’s fun to see how it changes.

Why would you be crazy to like white dial over blue? Ignore the sheeple mentality.

One of the best white dial watches and potentially the best white dial Rolex! Congrats!
