Gilt + Red Lettering + Matte Black is a timeless combo!

My favorite dials in no particular order:
The blue sunburst dial on gold Subs.
The glacier dials (without stones) on platinum DDs and Platonas.
The champagne dials (again without stones) on DDs.
The rhodium dial on the new DJ41.
The green sunburst dial on the Hulk.
The original exotic Art Deco black and white dials on the real Paul Newmans.
The tapestry dial on '80s TT Datejusts and finally
The dial on 1680 red Subs
All of the 6062 dials

I realize some of these are on the most coveted vintage watches but the dials are always what make the watch.

I really love the matte dial SeB's 1600. It's kinda business and sport at the same time.

Laurent Ferrier Galet micro rotor - the first time I saw this watch I was in love. The dial was absolutely amazing, especially with the smooth rounded edges of the indices and hands.
(Most beautiful case I’ve seen as well)

Photo borrowed from Monochrome watches, since I don’t have the pleasure of owning one myself

White MOP which I hope to have on a Daytona early next year. Closely followed by the Blue Sunburst which I have on my T/T Sub

My vote goes for anything with the Wimbledon dial. The sunburst rhodium, combined with the lacquered roman numerals, truly spectacular.

Nothing fancy, but I find the silver dial on the OP stunning. This isn't mine, but I am hoping to land one at my local AD.
