Black or the White OP?

[DaveDhc]

The photographs are misleading. I have the Oyster Perpetual 34mm black dial and the Oyster Perpetual 36mm white dial. Both look great and I couldn't pick one over the other.

What is misleading is that the photograph shows a distinctly black dial. In fact, the dial appears in most lighting as medium gray. It is also sunburst and so the color of the dial is dynamic. A photograph can't show this. So in the comparison you are showing, one can't really see what the differences are going to look like.

The "black" dial is quite impressive and the dial itself is a main attraction to the watch. With the white dial, the focus is more on the hour markers and how the reflect light. For some reason, the reflections are more impressive with the white dial.

I am in no way criticizing what you are doing. The term "misleading" is meant to describe the phenomenon of two dimensional photography and what it cannot capture. In the case of the gray dial, it shows it as black. In general, that dial only looks black with more subdued lighting.
