I own both. Black gets 90% of the wrist time. White is gorgeous as well though!
I just think the black is a lot more versatile and has a very clean, chic look. White more casual. |

With a steel bezel i like both, with a ceramic bezel it would have to be black only for me.

Yeah I’d vote (which we know how that turns out 50/50) but to my eye white is a clear winner

I am generally a black dial guy but for the Daytona, the white dial pops more than black. Especially against my tanned skin tone.

I saw saw a photo of an aging Paul Newman on IG the other day. He was wearing a Daytona with a black dial. If Paul Newman could wear a black dial Daytona, anybody can

I was the opposite. I had the opportunity to purchase either one but the white dial didn’t look right against my dark skin. The black dial hit just right though.... ![]() ![]()

Thousands of black dial owners likely agree with you!

After trying the white on, decided it wasn’t for me. I first got the 116519 WG silver dial which to me is a much nicer dial than the stark white. I followed this up with the black SS and now have my perfect Daytona duo.

I’m with you, I liked the panda at first but now I think the black on black looks better

On certain days, I love the white dial. On other days, the black dial just sings to me. I guess, what I’m saying is Both. Lol.

My AD allowed me to take a look at both before choosing one for my waitlist. Both were already promised to customers. Though I initially thought I wanted the white dial, the black dial just looked better to me in person. Made my decision based of of that and should be receiving mine this year.

I got a white 116520 but originally wanted a black one back in the day.
Answer is whichever one calls out to you. |

I prefer white but if you have other watches with black dials then get Daytona in white or vice versa.

This discussion is really meaningless as far as I am concerned. Black... white... they are both candy in my eyes

At first I bought the one with the black dial and then I bought the white one too because in the meantime I liked that too.
I don't miss anything now. |
