I like the black and blue versions best.

Tay821 · 8 February 2017, 03:16 AM

Option C - Boutique Blue!

masyv6 · 8 February 2017, 03:34 AM

Blue, if you can swing it.

Otherwise, black.

AK797 · 8 February 2017, 04:30 AM

Blue here too.

5Zigen · 8 February 2017, 04:36 AM

Blue would be my first choice if you can swing it, otherwise black dial.

Is the blue dial substantially more expensive?

The blue dial is a boutique exclusive so depending on where the OP is planning to buy from (boutique, AD or grey), he may find more and better pricing on the black vs blue dial.

Trimmer2 · 8 February 2017, 05:53 AM

Blue

Islatate · 8 February 2017, 06:51 AM

It really depends on the reference. For the 41mm 15400/26320, blue looks the best. On the 37mm 15450, the silver looks much better than the black dial. Last but not least, in the 15300/26300 reference, I much prefer the white dial.

MrGMT · 8 February 2017, 06:54 AM

Black

sachit · 8 February 2017, 07:53 AM

I know Blue is the best of all...and the waiting period is 8-10 months. So I'm thinking to buy the 41mm (black or white ) now then order and wait for extra thin 39mm Blue dial...

Put in the order for a 15202st blue dial, it might pop up before you know it. I wouldn't get either the black or white dial if that isn't the watch you want to keep in the end.. have you considered a diver instead of a 15400?

black

Peterandwatches · 8 February 2017, 09:00 AM

I think it's pretty redunant to have a 15400 and 15202 in the same collection, regardless of dial color, but that's just me.

Chute · 8 February 2017, 02:12 PM

Black 15400 is what I chose due to availability and discount. I don't regret it one bit. Blue is the favorite here it always seems.

If you are stuck in the black vs white dilemma, AP has added a fourth option: gray 15400. I, guessing those won't be discounted anytime soon and I hope they aren't boutique exclusive.

csquared317 · 8 February 2017, 03:44 PM

I picked White.

Own black and white RO. The white dial is dressier and black is sportier

jonmears1 · 10 February 2017, 03:04 PM

Can't go wrong with white, hence my Explorer II

Minimalist · 10 February 2017, 09:10 PM

I was ready to go with the white dial but the more I compared the black and white I decided to go with the black, because for me it had more legibility.

The white dial definitely sparkles more buy I find the black has more depth and character in that it changes colour depending on light.

All the best.

1William · 10 February 2017, 09:30 PM

I prefer the white, then blue and then black.

White!

ezinhk · 11 February 2017, 03:09 AM

Personal preference but black 15400 for me - once is on the wrist, it's surprisingly more elegant n can match any attire better
