+1. With my aging eyes, the black just won’t work for me.

The white seems to be more popular. Interesting... dark dials are usually stronger

True but you're also comparing white with black subdials rather than white with silver subdials. That puts white at an advantage with many.

MinMay · 31 May 2018, 11:46 PM

white has zero contrast with the stainless steel, therefore, i choose black. Also, black goes with everything...more masculine.

white reminds me of the white iphone...and I hated it after owning it for 1 month.

Rocmytims · 31 May 2018, 11:48 PM

Black looks better, white is easier ro read
Id say white

c41006 · 31 May 2018, 11:51 PM

I prefer the white dial

hun23 · 31 May 2018, 11:56 PM

In the OP, the white is a 16520 and the black is a 116520. I prefer the 15620 model to the 116520 model and therefore the white. White vs black on the same model is a different comparison.

viper · 1 June 2018, 08:45 AM

White for the 116520, Black for the 116500

dafuture · 1 June 2018, 08:48 AM

For the 116520 my choice is white for sure

I love the black 116520 and owned one for about 6 months. I just couldn’t read the time on it so I flipped for the white.

dkg1616 · 1 June 2018, 10:57 AM

White; it’s my grail watch but refuse to pay the premium for a used one...really hoping they bring it back into production at some point (ya ya ya I know I’ll keep dreaming)
