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

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. |

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.

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.

On the 116520....it's White all day long!
The black 116520, although beautiful, fly's so far under the radar that it's practically invisible! The white 116520 is not excessively blingy...it just seems to have the right amount of contrast and POP!  Now the ceramic Black...is a whole different story, as having had the opportunity to try on both the White and Black at the same time...they both have so much contrast and beauty, that it I simply waffle back and forth on which one I would get!

Bit of an unfair contast with a pic of the 16520 in white and the 116520 in black. As far as 116520's go the black wins hands down. 16520 and 116500 possibly the white!!
