Black dial Sky Dweller or white gold Day Date?

I want a black dial watch. I have a line in a black jubilee sky dweller and a pre owned white gold day date. Can’t have both. Always loved the president bracelet on the DD. But I love the dial on the sky dweller. What would you choose if the $ wasn’t much of a difference between the two?

The black dial Sky-Dweller is my favorite version, but if DD is an option, I will almost always choose the DD.

I’m surprised that a pre-owned DD is roughly the same price as a new SS Sky-Dweller?

I’m assuming the DD is an older 36mm previous 11 series gen. I wouldn’t wear a 36mm to be honest. Sky-D this time. And in a blue dial. The sky is blue. Happy hunting.

It would be for a 41mm dd2. And yes, the dd 2 would be a bit more. I’m saying money aside…
