White reminds me of the 70's old Daytona's.

White. Black one's face gets lost because of the black bezel. I'll keep my SS Black face with the classic bezel. No desire at all to trade up to the ceramic. The white face is the winner here. It's tempting, but not enough to replace what I already have. But as if Rolex couldn't sell all the SS Daytonas they could before this...it's gonna be a different level of crazy now.

This is definitely my favorite white dialed Daytona. In terms of black dials, the 16520 easily takes the cake there

Prefer the White, contrast of black subdials was the best part of the zenith version.
Was really hoping the silver subdials on the black would be changed to white.

White dial all the way. It stands out more than the black dial. I like the contrast with the ceramic bezel.

Both look great. I typically prefer darker dials, but the white looks nicer on this watch to me.

Normally, I lean towards blue, black and gray dials, but the new Daytona is best in white IMHO.

Thought I'd like black when the ceramics were to come to Daytona but the white looks much more balanced. The black sub-dial rings go great with the ceramic bezel but the black dial just kind of gets lost with the silver rings floating in the black of it all.
